From My Reading – May

Posted on May 4, 2024 by livingasapprentices

“We have to create a contemplative culture in our heart. We must vow to ourselves: I will not play the cynic. I will not break faith with my awakened heart” (James Finley).

  • Welcome to this blog about living as apprentices of Jesus!

    One of Karen's favorite quotes is: "Whatever job we get and whatever task we are assigned can serve as a container for grace" (Eugene Peterson in "Practical Resurrection"). We pray that the words and sentences on this blog may also serve as "containers of grace" for its readers.

    Joy and Karen
