I have a post up at a new venue. I will be doing some occasional writing at Godspace, a site that connects the dots on practical spirituality, sustainability, and justice. This piece is on interruptions and the positive side of the challenges of maintaining spiritual disciplines in a busy household.
I have a tendency to get very diffuse and given all of the commitments of a busy house, multiple jobs, and church duties, I’m looking to tailor my focus. Specifically, I’m identifying a center around liturgical spirituality and particularly those practices that are deeply bound up with the Scriptures and the psalms. This is not new, of course, but I will be working on being more intentional about it. Hence, expect to see a clear focus on things like:
- The Daily Office in their pre- and post-Reformation forms
- The Books of Hours and their spiritual traditions
- The Psalms themselves
- The practical doing and experience of Psalm-grounded spirituality
