Who’s Speaking?
Discerning the Good Shepherd’s Voice from that of the Stranger
Christ the Good Shepherd said His own recognize His voice and flee from the voice of the stranger. How do we discern which is the right one? Culling counsels and lessons from the spiritual masters of Church Tradition, this book presents the various voices and their corresponding tell-tale signs so as to properly discern spirits. Learning to discover who is speaking will help the reader to be led to green pastures where the Good Shepherd has prepared an everlasting banquet.

Twenty-Second Sunday After Pentecost — Sermon by Fr. Ermatinger
James Tissot, 1886-94
Translation of the Epistle for the 22nd Sunday After Pentecost
Brethren, I am convinced in the Lord Jesus, that he, who has begun a good work in you, will bring it to perfection until the day of Christ Jesus; and I have the right so to feel about you all because I have you in my heart, all of you alike in my chains, and in the defense and confirmation of the Gospel as sharers in my joy. For God is my witness, how I long for you all in the heart of Christ Jesus. And this I pray: That your charity may more and more abound in knowledge and all discernment so that you may approve the better things; that you may be upright and without offense unto the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of justice. Through Christ Jesus, to the glory and praise of God.
