Description: Discerning Disciples : Listening for God's Voice in Christian Initiation by Donna Steppen, SCTrade Paperback Like New The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults invites several moments of discernment as those contemplating a major step attempt to discover what direction to take. Beneath the liturgical celebrations of embracing Catholicism, catechumens and candidates, adults and children wrestle with personal questions, asking themselves, Is God truly calling me? Am I called to join this community? What in my attitudes and behaviors is holy, and what needs to change? How am I being invited to let go and open myself to God's love? This revised edition, with new chapters on discernment with the baptized candidate, children, and among initiation ministers, is an invaluable reference for initiation ministers and sponsors who journey with catechumens and candidates. It describes the discernment process, how people experience it, and how it facilitates conversion. The book serves to improve the listening skills of guides and helps them ask the right questions at the right time. The appendix contains specific training processes for initiation ministers, gives concrete suggestions for interviews during the four stages of the catechumenate, and offers a format for a discernment day before the Rite of Election.
