Today The Discipline of Spiritual Discernment blog tour moves to The A-Team Blog. In case you’ve missed it on previous days, the tour works like this: the owner of another blog poses a question about discernment and my answer is posted on his or her blog on an appointed day.

It allows me to attempt to address questions other people may have about discernment and potentially to address questions that are of particular importance to readers of other blogs.
