The sixth and final talk in the Advanced Charisms Course, given by Fr. Ed Fride, pastor of Christ the King Catholic Church, on Friday, May 17, 2013, at Christ the King Catholic Church as part of the Upper Room Ministry. Fr. Ed reviews some resources to help Catholics better understand and explain to others how the charismatic gifts are rooted in the heart of the Catholic Church. He encourages everyone to not get into an "either-or" approach regarding their spiritual lives, but to embrace all four pillars of the spiritual life identified by Pope John Paul the Great: Eucharistic, contemplative, charismatic, and Marian. He urges everyone to read Scripture regularly as God's Word forms the foundation for the pillars. He closes by encouraging everyone to say "Yes" to whatever Jesus wants to do in and through us for the sake of His Kingdom. He then takes a few questions before moving on to the lab portion of the class, led by Dr. Mary Healy. Key words: Eucharistic, contemplative, charismatic, Marian, Scripture, Bible charismatic, charisms, Holy Spirit, Upper Room |
