Everyday Sacred:
Engaging Spirituality through Scripture and the Christian Tradition“Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many.”
~ 1 Corinthians 12:12-14
Do you ever wonder what all the hype around “spirituality” is about?
Are you someone who believes you are too ordinary to grow closer to God?
Have you wondered how to transition from the faith of your childhood to an adult faith that offers an anchor in life’s inevitable suffering?
Would you like to get more comfortable with the Bible?
How might an encounter with the core beliefs common to Christian traditions impact your spirituality?


“Engaged” spirituality is not just for Sundays or specific prayer times but encompasses all of life: one’s exterior life of work, leisure, family, relationships, physical health, culture, and global events – and one’s inner life: thoughts, emotions, psyche, inner wounds, deep desires, and profound longings for “the more”— more love, more life, more of God.
Everyday Sacred is an eight-module program across two semesters. It invites participants to explore the elements of their own spirituality, and create, expand, and adapt a personal life-changing spirituality that is rooted in Scripture and nourished by the wisdom of Christian tradition.
Participants from all Christian backgrounds honoring the rich diversity of the Body of Christ are encouraged to attend.

Following an introduction to spirituality, modules include the theory, history, and practice of prayer, reading and praying with the Bible, what it means to be human, and how Christian traditions understand the nature of God and the mystery of the Trinity.
Led by trained faculty, participants will learn about and experience spirituality. Each module includes both informational and formational experiences. No purchase of any books is required. However suggested readings will be offered in both semesters for those desiring to go deeper.
