About this episode
What role does contemplative prayer have in healing the fractures of our modern culture and those of our own fragmented lives? And how can our spiritual and creative practices offer an antidote to the chaos of contemporary life? In today’s episode, we’re exploring these questions with best-selling author, counselor, and teacher John Eldredge . Drawing insights from his latest book, Experience Jesus. Really: Finding Refuge, Strength, and Wonder Through Everyday Encounters with God , John highlights several themes that align with those of our upcoming Breath and Clay creative arts gathering . He shares insights on what it means to live in the hour of fragmentation and how we can reconnect to the integrating center of all things.
