What prevents us from living with passion and grace?
What is it that makes each day matter?
What makes the everyday ordinary world extraordinary . . . even sacred?
Daily we are bombarded by thousands of advertisements about the life we should live, or what we should have. We find it easy to love the promises of another life, another self. Not a week goes by, we don’t mentally spend the lottery winnings that fill our fantasies. But the good life is about practicing the sacrament of the blessed present. About cherishing, paying attention and wanting what we already hold.
In this CD, Terry talks about the sacred necessities to embrace this good life: Finding and cherishing sacred space for restoration and renewal, the permission to pay attention—enjoy a sense of surprise and wonder—and notice the little gifts, the freedom to sit still and revel in “unproductive” renewal, and the freedom to live wrapped in the exuberance of grace.
