This summer we are returning to a 2022 series on contemplation, and this week's episode is all about contemplating art. I do hope it's a blessing to you!
As we explore a variety of methods of contemplative prayer this summer, week eight is all about art. As you choose a piece of art to contemplate this week, I pray that you will have a fruitful encounter with God who is crazy about you.
