Since it’s the 4th of July and my family is on a quick get-away I thought I would share ten things I’ve loved in June.
Next week back to the regularly scheduled Smaller & Deeper.
3) Ed Sheeran’s New Song Bad Habits
4) This Quote from Diane Butler Bass:
Awakenings are periods of sustained cultural reorganization wherein an entire society is transformed. They are not renewals of what already exists. Awakenings extend and enlarge the boundaries of faith and culture, often embodying unfulfilled aspirations of earlier generations and opening the religious and social imagination toward unexpected directions. Awakenings open eyes and hearts toward greater practices of love and justice - and they fundamentally reshape how we imagine faith, community, and politics.

5) Revelations by Mary Sharratt
6) The Kitchen Front by Jennifer Ryan (This is the story of four women in a small English village competing to co-host a BBC program for cooking with rations. It’s a fiction book, based on some historical events. It was a 4.5 star book for me!)
7) From the Front Porch Podcast (I love this podcast on all things reading.)
8) The Child is a Spiritual Child (Youtube video)
9) This Quote from The Kitchen Front by Jennifer Ryan
“I found that contentment-happiness even-comes in all kinds of ways. Sometimes you shouldn’t wait for things to be perfect. You just need to enjoy the small things, every little moment that makes you smile.”
-Jennifer Ryan
10) Our Haiku Conversation (Once a month Michael, Davin, and I share one Haiku with each other and we each write a response to our own Haiku and the two others. Fourteen months ago we started recording and sharing our conversations. We have so much fun and ALWAYS are amazed by the synchronicity of the patterns we discover. This month we cover Aloe, Clouds, and Ordinary days…)
