We’ve talked about ritual before—
the rhythms of life, and faith, and practice that ground us in the Christian tradition.

And one of the reasons we keep coming back to these conversations is because— well—that’s what ritual requires of us. We don’t ever outgrow the need for persistent daily patterns.

We don’t ever get beyond having to build better habits for our good.
We don’t ever discover the best of rituals by neglecting the care they require.

So, we’re excited for how a return to old ideas and familiar practices might inspire us. Exploring how our struggle to sustain spiritual practices might be a symptom of our efforts to self-improve, to self-support, and self-sustain.

Finding that—in looking at the scriptures, and the life and teachings of Jesus—the power of ritual might lie in the ways it pulls us beyond and outside ourselves.
