February Seed Sampler 2010


We’ve all felt it, the desire to spend more time with God but we are just too busy.  A companion anxiety is knowing we have allowed other things to crowd God out of our schedules. It’s easy to romanticize the days when life was less complicated, less fragmented, and meaningful time with God and others was just a natural part of who we were.

Unfortunately that nostalgic notion is only partly true.  The world we live in today is the world we have – going back is not an option.  With Lent fast approaching this Seed Sampler is designed to help you slow down, reign in the chaos and regain “the peace of Christ that passes all understanding.”

This Seed Sampler is a part of a series, 2010>>>2020- New Challenges- New Possibilities in which we are sharing new challenges likely to impact our lives and world in this new decade and creative responses to these challenges.     In this issue  we will focus on trends likely to shape spiritual practices for followers of Jesus in the next decade.  We will discuss the impact of growing pressures on our time and coming of a more multi-cultural and religiously pluralistic futures.  The Seed Shares will provide examples of how we might imagine new possibilities that engage these challenges.  We urge readers to share your responses to these articles or new possibilities you have imagined or created and start a conversation.
