A mid-week message from the Pastor:

Tilden H. Edwards, Jr., writes this: “Contemplation is the ever-fresh world of the spiritual heart. Noncontemplation is the ever-constricted world of the head, sense, and feelings separated from that heart. The spiritual heart is the true center of our being. It is the placeless place where divine Spirit and human beings live together. When the great historical spiritual elders of the church advocated keeping the mind in the heart, I believe they were speaking of the need to keep our thoughts, feelings, bodies, actions, wills, and sense of identity connected with our spiritual heart day by day, moment by moment. Our sanity and authentic discernment, love, and delight depend on this connectedness.”

Have a blessed week,
Pastor John
