Show Notes

For this episode of Latter-day Contemplation Riley welcomes back Phil McLemore to discuss the power habits and rituals.  Habits can be positive or negative and ultimately become the structural backbone of our lives.  As we learn to use them in productive ways we are led to lives of inner and outer transformation.  However, habits have the potential to become an unconscious, soul and agency destroying cancer that compounds the problems of the “natural man”.  Bringing conscious awareness to the individual and accumulated habits which form our routines can help us replace entropic, destructive processes with what Christ called “living water”.  They offer specific ideas and guidance based on the book Atomic Habits and their own life experience which can help us break these unhealthy cycles and begin the process of rebirth into a new life.
