Greetings and salutations to all who may have joined us from the Deepening Faith Group. We are reading one of Henri Nouwen's delicious little books, Can you Drink the Cup?  If you are not in the group, and would like to be, we will meet on 28 August, 7pm in the Hofer room at Zion's. Read the Prologue and the Introduction for that evening and all of us will supply the conversation.

The group's intent is to "deepen our faith in God and our love toward one another" (to quote a common post communion prayer from the Lutheran liturgy). As the group evolves, we may discuss personal and communal challenges in daily life; we may read other books that will help us to live as followers of the Christ.

I may from time to time offer on this blog some general thoughts for consideration from the Faith Group (keeping in mind not to share anything confidential without permission). In the meantime, come read the book with us and enjoy! Those who have newly joined us on this blog, welcome; feel free to comment at your leisure.

Peace,
Tim

  1. I "cracked" the book (Can you drink the cup?) the other night and can't wait to take a bite on the 28th. Thanks be to God!! Enjoyed your take on Hunger Games, it opened up new area of thought.
    Thanks PT - Tom
