If there is one thing that sets apart spiritually stable people from spiritually unsteady people it is their participation in daily religious observances. It doesn’t matter what religion they belong to – it matters whether they willingly and consistently engage in personal acts of devotion. I got thinking about this after reading a comment from Peter Rival on this thread:
A parish that doesn’t nurture mid-week Mass attendance is one that will quickly see other practices fall to the wayside as well.
