A Resource for the Spirit Within

We've been muddling along without a spiritual director for our church family for almost 4 months now.  Candidates have been reviewed and interviewed...but no selection has happened...yet.

Meanwhile, on Sundays we've received wonderful visitors who've tried to fill the gap...but on a daily basis, some of us might be really hungry and thirsty right now for steady spiritual and theological leadership.

It's okay.

Someone will arrive in God's time.

Meanwhile, if you feel that you need a source of inspiration, hope, encouragement, thoughtful reflection...

You might try the website, "The Work of the People".  With "saints" such as Walter Brueggemann, Parker Palmer, Brene Brown, Krista Tippett, Jean Vanier, and Barbara Brown Taylor...if you need a bit of audio or video for your 'quiet time', you might check this site out.

It's organized by categories that include 'liturgy', 'people', 'most recent' (as in 'featured') and 'favorites' (yes it's American-based so pardon the spelling ;-) !)

You can view/listen to a certain amount of it for free...but then there are subscription options for monthly 'streaming' (listen-as-you-go), downloading (for keeps) etc.

Take your pick.

Grab a cuppa; light a candle; breathe deeply; listen to what the Spirit is saying...

Ahhhh......
