Do you feel distant from God… even when you’re trying?

 

In this episode, Gem Fadling shares a simple but profound pathway for spiritual growth, drawn from the wisdom of St. Clare of Assisi: gaze, consider, contemplate, imitate.

 

These four movements offer a slower, more relational way to deepen your connection with God, especially if you feel spiritually stuck, distracted, or tired of trying harder.

 

This is not about doing more. It’s about learning how to be with God in a way that leads to lasting transformation.

 

In this episode, you’ll learn:
A simple Christian contemplative practice
How to deepen your relationship with God
A slower, more grounded way to follow Jesus

 

If you’re longing for a deeper spiritual life, this is a gentle place to begin.
