Peter and Judas both betrayed Jesus on the same night, and both were crushed with guilt. One ended in despair, and the other became the rock the Church was built on. What made the difference was where their guilt drove them.
In this episode: • The difference between the Holy Spirit’s conviction and the enemy’s condemnation • Why Satan is called “the accuser,” and how his voice sounds before and after we sin • St. Ignatius of Loyola’s rules for discerning which voice you’re hearing • Four ways to tell conviction from condemnation in the moment • Scrupulosity, and what the Church actually teaches about mortal sin • King David, Psalm 51, and what real repentance sounds like • St. Francis de Sales on being gentle with yourself after you fall • Three questions to ask the next time guilt hits
