I was especially taken by your description of Christian community/ organized religion as a crucible for spirituality. Having been in some particularly fiery situations and containers these past few years, I have pretty much avoided the cauldron lately, likely slacking off a little spiritually as well. It may be getting to be time to wander back—maybe.
“Any human project is dangerous, and annoying, and often just plain wrong.” Absolutely!
Your photo of your dad reminded me of how I saw him 50 years ago in El Paso. I remember the pipe also.
Looking forward to hearing about the class which was vital in your spiritual growth!

I get it, Susan. Maybe just didn’t find the right Community? It can take quite a while - like finding the right therapist!
Amen to that!
