How do we, as believers, discern between intents that lead us closer to God and intents that move us further away from God, or to comprehend the invitation from the Lord and His presence?<\/p>\n<p>The programme aims to cultivate a Christocentric perspective in believers, to learn the process of Christian spiritual discernment, which helps us sharpen our emotional states, intents, desires, and all the other feelings and ideas. We will learn how to cultivate a conscious and discerning mind that allows us to listen carefully, to experience the presence and guidance of God in every event of our lives, and inspire us to choose to live the life that delights the Lord.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_section full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1614581783491{background-color: #dbe9e6 !important;}&#8221; el_id=&#8221;quote&#8221;][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-md-6&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #104e3d;\">&#8220;For me, this programme is full of spiritual blessings.
