A Love Supreme by Julie Moore

I had a particular thrill this weekend when I saw my own name in the credits of a movie. And it was really referring to me... not to some other Julie Moore. It was a rush, I tell you. I felt happy to be part of making the film, Blue Like Jazz. I wrote about it earlier, here, but that was before it came out. So now I need to complete the circle by sharing my reaction with you, having seen the movie.

First of all, I'll tell you about how I was hanging out with Grace and Bill on Friday afternoon when the phone rang and...

The Spirit leads us to call out passionately to God as our tender and loving Father.

A Prayer Life That Nourishes Your Relationship to God by Tim Keller

kellEvery year I look forward to the slower pace of the summer months because of the opportunity it gives me to re-invigorate my prayer life. It's not that I don't pray during the year, but rarely, in the press of hectic scheduling, am I able to consistently devote the hours necessary to reawaken the intimacy with God that not only I crave, but which is my only defense against burnout.
