“Yet God made us to spend our days in rest, work, and play, taking care of our bodies, our families, our neighborhoods, our homes. What if all these boring parts matter to God? What if days passed in ways that feel small and insignificant to us are weighty with meaning and part of the abundant life that God has for us?…
“I like big ideas. I can get drunk on talk of justification, ecclesiology, pneumatology, Christology, and eschatology. But these big ideas are borne out - lived believed, and enfleshed - in the small moments of our day, in the places, seasons, homes, and communities that compose our lives.”
-Tish Harrison Warren, Liturgy of the Ordinary: Sacred Practices in Everyday Life
I cannot recommend this book enough.
