BLOGS
Prayer
These are our weekly and daily blogs revolving around prayer and the body of Christians as a whole.
Daily Prayer :: Wind
This site is for everyone who is taking their next steps of faith or first steps into a relationship with Circle of Hope. It can be used on its own or in conjunction with The Way of Jesus website found here.
▶ This week Daily Prayer :: Wind explores our proverb We are meant to go deep with God. The blog entries will be covering a host of topics including prayer, silence and solitude, self-expression, and the internet. Coming up, we’ll be exploring how worship works and practicing it as a spiritual discipline, and the vision of our Sunday meeting gatherings.
Daily Prayer :: Water
At this site we will enjoy many different voices who are being asked to take a week or two at a time to lead us. They may have a theme to follow at times, especially when the pastors are taking their turns, they may lead us through a book, or just give us what they think we need. It can be used on its own or in conjunction with our Way of Jesus website found here.
▶ Daily Prayer :: Water explores the theme of Imagination as a Tool for Spiritual Growth. September 10th started this current theme with a quote from Richard Rohr, “The power of imagination and art is at the level of soul, where we do not consciously know what is happening. Therefore, we cannot engineer it, do not need to understand it, nor can we fully stop its effects!…”
Celebrating Our Transhistorical Body
As a sister page to Circle of Hope Daily Prayer, we are celebrating Holy Days and certain influential people who have gone on into the Cloud of Witnesses.
