It’s a book to go through slowly… every time I sit with it, I feel more free and more peace. It’s been so helpful in navigating my spiritual life in all the “new normals” that life takes our family. I can’t recommend it enough! I’ve given so many copies to friends this year as gifts.

Some of her words felt like they were lifted from my head! I hope to see more posts like this! Thanks Anna!

Hope you are at peace and healing after your grandmother’s passing.

Ahh thank you SO much for the awesome leads. Can’t wait to check them out! Feeding Zelie forces me to take time to read which is a needed mind break!

Every nursing session, even the short ones that happen now with a one-year-old, involves at least a few pages of reading- which also motivates me to keep going with the book! I recently finished All the Light We Cannot See and Kristin Lavransdatter. Now I’m reading John Senior and the Restoration of Realism (about education- certainly applies to education in the home, and what we can do to prepare our children for education at school- I highly recommend it) and Josef Pieper’s The Four Cardinal Virtues. Like all Pieper, it is excellent and heady, but can be read in small chapter chunks.

As for devotional reading, I’m listening to these recorded talks by Jacques Phillippe that are really fantastic. https://www.mixcloud.com/discover/beatitudes+jacques+philippe+retreat/ The theme is interior freedom and the last one I listened to was about freedom toward other people- and, mostly, forgiveness.
