“Seeking the Mind of the Maker: Writing as Spiritual Practice”
Thursdays, February 21 – March 14, 2013
7pm in the Lounge
This four-week course is an exploration of writing as spiritual practice – a practice through which we will understand our own creativity as a means of connecting with God. This is for writers of all levels – and non-writers! Many of the challenges and promises the writer encounters in the creative process – feeling dry or blocked, judging one’s work as not good enough, and on the other hand experiencing a wellspring that seems not to come from us – mirror larger aspects of the spiritual life. Creative writing (fiction and non-fiction) will be the experiential grist for our spiritual mill in these four weeks. Facilitated by Rev. Jeffrey Vamos.
