No matter what it looks like or who lives there, home is a place where we should feel safe and loved. Where we talk about God, learn about God’s story and discover how we can play our part in it to impact the world around us. Making our home for faith — a place where God is present, loved, and celebrated — takes practice. Every prayer, every moment of quiet gratitude, and every kind word strengthens our faith, our hearts, and our home. This season on Making Our Home For Faith, the podcast, we’re working the spiritual practice of Compline, prayers we say at bedtime. Each episode features a different family sharing the peace and beauty of this ancient practice with you. Listen to it around the table when you’re coloring or playing with LEGOs. Or pile together in your pajamas in the bed. It doesn’t matter how or where you do it, as long as you open your hearts and homes to this family’s prayers. So, grab your Book of Common Prayer, turn to page 127 to follow along, or go to the Cathedral website and use the “Making Our Home for Faith” button on the homepage. May your home be blessed and strengthened this evening as we Make Our Home For Faith together.

If God is interacting with you, would you notice? Can you learn to recognize and respond to God in your story — in your everyday, ordinary life? Let’s find out from other people who are curious like you! We’ll hear from people who have recognized what God is up to in the midst of the mundane, joyful, painful and profound moments of life, and sensed God with them, in them, and for them. Some found encouragement, healing, hope, redemption, restoration, new perspectives or direction at life’s crossroads — sometimes in surprising ways.

Listen as podcast Host Sharon Swing and Co-Hosts Joan Kelley, Sibyl Towner and Lori Shoults interview people who have reviewed their life story using ‘Listen to My Life’ maps. We’ll talk with authors, pastors, artists or anyone with an interesting story about God’s small voice stirring their souls. To find out more about the ‘Listen to My Life’ maps or submit your story for a potential future episode, go to www.onelifemaps.com/podcast to learn more.

“Contemplate This!” features talks and guided meditations with Dr. Tom Bushlack, plus interviews with guests. Interviews feature leaders and teachers of contemplative practices (mindfulness, meditation, contemplative prayer, etc.) in order to learn about their history, how they became involved in contemplation, what their daily practice looks like, how they teach and share the fruits of contemplation with others – and most importantly – how their practice has transformed them and inspired their work to transform others and the world around them.
