My recent discernment started after my recent attendance at a political event (see Politics and Faith) led me to go back to the beginning.  I did some research.  What did Jesus really teach?  Fr. Richard Rohr tells the truth about what Jesus really taught .  I discovered Fr. Richard Rohr and started getting his daily meditation blog via email.  His web referenced his talk at the Festival of Faith at Louisville Kentucky in March on Silence.

Silence is the phenomenon that brings our culture together as one. http://youtu.be/uaMVKnpsDA8?t=10m25s  .
