“I have an unquenchable desire to slow down and find my life going deeper in my walk with Christ. I want to meet him in the depths of my soul, away from the stress and press of everything on top. A relationship with Christ is the key to fulfilling our deepest longings. All of life is about filling the void that sin and separation from him have created within. Filling the emptiness with piles of things, earthly friendships, satisfying experiences, and sensual encounters ultimately proves to achieve less than what we had hoped for. Christ is the only one who fits.” WantSoulLife IsDesireChristSinWalksChristianityAchieveKeysFitProveStressDown AndPressesLongingDepthDeeperSeparationMy SoulSensualEncountersEmptinessSatisfyingVoidFulfillingSlow DownFilling Author:Joseph Stowell
“As soon as I moved to New York, I experienced Hurricane Irene and then Hurricane Sandy hit me in quite a big way. I had 12 days without any electricity or any water. The thing that I realized the most from it was that we've become so dependent on technology. There's so much accessibility to information that suddenly when everything is cut off, you're completely lost, and you start asking deeper and more profound questions - how short life is, and how grateful we should be for things.” WayShouldBigsLife IsLostWaterTechnologyCuttingInformationNew YorkAskingGratefulMovedProfoundDeeperI RealizedDependentElectricityHurricanesShort LifeAccessibilitySandyHow Short Life IsHurricane Sandy Author:Archie Panjabi
“When I was in my early 20s I converted to Catholicism after a long period of searching. What I think drew me to the Catholic church is that in Catholicism, prayer suffuses all of one's life by virtue of the sacraments. Prayer is not something which occurs just on Sunday, it doesn't occur only at particular moments of intensity or by particular conventions, one's whole life is given up to prayer in many, many modes. And so everything to do with the faith is trying to put you in relationship with God and trying to make that relationship grow deeper and more mature.” ThinkingTryingLongWholeMomentsLife IsGivenGrowsChurchPrayerVirtueParticularPeriodsCatholicDeeperWhole LifeSundayMatureCatholicismIntensityConventionsSacramentsGiven UpCatholic ChurchRelationship With GodEarly 20s Author:Kevin Hart
