There are so many topics we discuss these days! We enjoy talking about fashion, money, the weather, sports, and the latest news. We follow celebrities and influencers, often taking their opinions to heart.
But is this our real life? Amidst these lighter topics, we frequently overlook the deeper issues that affect our lives and shape our true identities.
Perhaps it is time to bring more meaningful and significant subjects into our conversations. Let's consider discussing the supernatural. We cannot ignore this realm in our family discussions and public debates.
Yes, let's have serious conversations about our religion and our faith. It is time to address the supernatural that surrounds us in various forms. However, we shouldn't approach it as a theoretical concept or through the lens of academic theology or formal catechism. "Talking about it" means staying grounded in our personal experiences and interests. It means still talking about us and our lives —our religious doubts, our theological questions, and our spiritual opinions.
There are numerous supernatural topics we could bring to our "coffee table" for discussion! These could include miracle stories, accounts of apparitions, mysteries surrounding holy icons, and questions about traditional forms of devotion, among many others. Even though these topics may be a little controversial, that's what makes them interesting! They can capture our interest, enlighten our minds, clarify our opinions, and strengthen our convictions.
