| 0:00.0 | This is the movement of the Holy Family. |
| 0:03.0 | Welcome to our daily Rosary meditation. |
| 0:05.0 | Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. |
| 0:08.0 | Amen. |
| 0:09.0 | I am blessed this evening to be with about a hundred people who have |
| 0:18.0 | committed to be trained as spiritual mentors and now they are out in the world and they are giving |
| 0:27.2 | spiritual directions spiritual mentoring to hundreds thousands of people helping them grow closer to Jesus through a |
| 0:37.2 | deeper life of prayer. This is an amazing group of people, but I'm sure that there are many of you out there praying with us that you also have a desire to have a deeper life of prayer and to help others grow in prayer. |

| 2:25.0 | And in practice, it means we need to make an assessment of what kinds of media were consuming. |
| 2:34.8 | Three feelings in particular have the capacity to get our emotional and moral life off the rails. |
| 2:50.9 | Lust, anger, and discouragement or despair. So are we feeding these passions with the media we consume? |
| 2:58.8 | Our Father who aren't in heaven, |
