Foundations for Dreaming
Day 13 - More than a history lesson, Second Ecumenical Council is remembered and offered as a lesson on solid foundation for faith. Faith without works has another side: works without faith, which is essential for making dreams come true.

The Measure of Forgiveness

Giving
Day 4 - In the Sermon on the Mount (Matt 6) Jesus gives specific instructions for giving. Along with fasting and praying, giving gives us an opportunity to strip down to the bare essentials. There is an artificial balance between giving and receiving which is disrupted by Jesus’ instruction to give, where unconditional means forgetting the self and losing the ego.
