CONTEMPLATION: ENCOUNTERING INTIMACY

January 30, 2017

As we develop in our Christian faith, prayer and the modes of prayer become more and more important to our transformation and growth in the interior life.

GETTING DOWN AND DIRTY!

January 28, 2017

DUSTING UP THE “LIKENESS”

January 12, 2017

When is the last time that you thought about your “identity” as a person? Perhaps that thought, when it came, led you to the question of “why you were created?” If we look at inanimate things we can generally determine the purpose for which the item was created.
