Falling Upward: A Spirituality for the Two Halves of Life, by Richard Rohr and Brene Brown
Wednesday evenings 6:45-8pm, on Wednesdays, May 21st, 28th, and June 4th
It's probably no surprise to you that as you grow through life, your spirituality beckons for change, too. Soulful wisdom and insight into this natural process will be the focus of our Wednesday night education series this Easter season. We have a seat for you on Wednesday nights if you're ready to explore the "second journey" that we are called to go on, especially in life's second half. Richard Rohr's powerful, small book will serve as our guide. No pre-reading of the book required before the first session. Just come! We'll end our discussions with the service of Compline.
You may purchase your hard or digital copy of the book here: "Falling Upward" by Richard Rohr and Brene Brown
