I have so come to look forward to these. Lately for me, a “whatever is honest” thing has been reading through “readings from the book of exile” by Pádraig Ó Tuama.
Hi Adrienne - saw this and I will have to check this book out. Currently I am reading another book of his about the book of Ruth which is very illuminating.
I am. His whole approach to looking at the Bible is a revelation to me. I clearly need to widen my horizons. I’ve been cloistered in a land of fast food bible interpretation. Which is why I was so excited when Marcie started this! So wonderful-
Weird and Wonderful was so amazing! I’m A fan of the tube worms that live on hydrothermal vents. I am fascinated by any kind of extreme environment biology. They demonstrate creative and perseverant ways of living in what seem to be unsurvivable circumstances.
I actually heard someone say that there’s evidence of “end times” all the time in war, poverty, trauma, oppression - and nature! That’s what I thought of when I read “unsurvivable circumstances”
Thank you for doing the work and sharing these every week. What a wonderful way to inspire and spur us on to love and good deeds...❤️
Thank you. Honestly, creating them has been a good spiritual practice for me.
Marcie,
Thanks for sending these emails out. They are thought-provoking, encouraging, intriguing, and lovely. Very grateful to receive them.
Thank for that gracious offering. Peace.

I sooooo adore Pádraig Ó Tuama. I'm going to add your suggestion to my library.

Oh also I saw my first comb jelly yesterday at a floating workshop. Clear little not so exciting one in CT bay…but important to ecosystem!
Floating workshop?! I don’t know what that is but sure would like to find out.
