Q & R: What Does Your Creative Process Look Like?

I've released a new book! Beholding: Deepening Our Experience of God is an invitation to a God-soaked life of seeing and being seen by God. It tells my story, the story of consumerism in our times, and invites the reader into spiritual renewal through a recalibration of what we mean when we say the word, prayer.To celebrate I'm sharing an episode here from the book's experiential accompaniment the Beholding Prayer podcast which hosts guided prayer meditations for you to practice in your own time and space.Window of The Soul is the first of these.Find my new book Beholding and it's accompaniment the Beholding Prayer podcast wherever good books and podcasts are found.

To close Season 3 of the CC Podcast I want to share with you a written homily I shared  with a local church earlier this month. It's about the spiritual fruit of goodness, and how we reclaim goodness in a cultural context in which it basically means whatever we feel or personally believe it is.
