How to Live: Invitations for Everyone
“Everything is phenomenal; everything is incredible; never treat life casually. To be spiritual is to be amazed.” ---Abraham Joshua Heschel
The Christian spiritual life is not about achievement; it’s about amazement. It’s not about labor; it’s about play. This semester we explore the abundant opportunities to “taste and see that the Lord is good.” (Psalm 34:8) Join us as any Friday as we reclaim our lives and our peace---one invitation at a time.
