The Wonder of Awe and Spirituality
with the Worship Committee
Image created by June Brink
Probably most of you have a practice or heard of folks having a practice of health and fitness, or music or art, maybe even having a gratitude practice, writing in a gratitude journal. But have you ever heard of having an Awe and Spiritual practice?
In today’s tumultuous world, it can be easy to fall into numbness and despair. In light of this, we need wonder and awe in our lives. These profound expansive feelings ground us, remind us that we are part of something larger, and reconnect us with the beauty and mystery of life.
This Sunday, we will explore what the concept of Awe and Spirituality is and what it is to have an Awe and Spirituality practice. Come tell us what role does Awe/awe play in your life?
