yesterday was the last day of the fall quarter for me. one more quarter down, and two remaining until i leap into life after graduate school. or, as a young adult, just life after school. with this space to breathe, i have more time to blog. but today is a rest day for me. my mind is over-full, and i must decompress, unpack, contemplate. it's advent and it might be worth passing along some info to other weary students who find themselves stressed-out, hurried, axnious or otherwise tired of school or this consumer-driven society.
here's my (short) list of places and/or means to contemplate and let the season of advent enfold you:
- the advent conspiracy. a movement of christians who commit to these tenets: worship more. spend less. give more. love all. need i say more?
- of course, a number of local churches. two that i am involved with: church of the apostles and church of the beloved. the picture above is from beloved's advent 1 service. check websites for meeting times and places. both churches have podcasts to download (not necessarily on advent, thought).
more blog posts as i find the space to write...
