We are meeting this coming Sunday, October 4th at 7:00 PM at Lancaster Brewing Company at 469 Eisenhower Blvd. For directions, go here.
Our reading this week comes from the Christian Century and Stephanie Paulsell, a professor at Harvard Divinity School. Please read Old-Fashioned Love Song.
The verses she refers to from the Song of Songs or Song of Solomon are:
Ah, you are beautiful, my love;
ah, you are beautiful;
your eyes are doves.
Ah, you are beautiful, my
beloved,
truly lovely.
Here are some questions for reflection:
- How have you experienced this Fall so far? How has your rhythm changed or not changed since Labor Day?
- What are some of your spiritual practices?
- What do you think of Stephanie Paulsell's idea to look at life through the lens of "ah, you are beautiful?"
- How might this change your relationship to your daily life? To others? To the world? To God?
