THE BOOK OF LONGINGS

“OUR WORDS OF FAITH,” part 2

with Henry Ralph Carse

Through a midrashic interpretive method, with focus on intimate reading and personal response, we’re invited to hear old words with new attentiveness. Our first conversation focused on divine names. In this gathering, we will explore your own choices of words and phrases from our spiritual traditions.

Choose one word or short phrase from the Bible, liturgy, hymns or prayers. Email this to Henry at hrcarse@hotmail.com with subject line, “Word of Faith” by Easter. We’ll look at your choices and discuss some of them together.

If you wish, you may read this introductory essay.
