Cold Comfort Farm





I loved this book. It is really funny! I tried reading this before and watching the movie, and I couldn't get into it. For some reason, I loved it this year. Clever and crazy. 


Here is why James Mustich thinks it should be one of the 1000 Books You Read Before You Die:

Imagine a Jane Austen heroine stumbling into an episode of The Beverly Hillbillies, with the hillbillies portrayed by method actors. That will give you something of the flavor of this giddy tale, which presents a picture of country life that is roaringly bizarre—and hilarious. Flora Poste is a sophisticated Londoner whose education has been “expensive, athletic and prolonged.” When she is orphaned at nineteen, she heads off to stay with the Starkadders, her distant cousins on her late mother’s side. They have a dilapidated farm in the village of Howling—a place that turns out to be perfectly named, for what Flora discovers at Cold Comfort Farm is enough to make anyone scream. 

The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch







Not all science fiction books are created equal. This is my third book by Philip K. Dick, and they are all engaging. It is still not my favorite genre, but I think it addresses some current issues, especially addiction to escape!

Here is why James Mustich thinks it should be one of the 1000 Books You Read Before You Die:


If one were assigned the unenviable task of selecting a single book as a showcase for all of Philip K. Dick’s tropes, tactics, tricks, themes, and tics, The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch might well be the best choice. In its pages, we see in incredibly effective form the majority of the imagery, incidents, characters, and themes the author became known for: consumerist brainwashing; peculiar drugs; simulacra; Manic Pixie Girlfriends Who Are Truly Other Than What They Seem; psychic powers, especially precognition; the universe as a hostile minefield; egomaniacal sociopaths who become both more and less than human; sassy cybernetic constructs; shifting internal monologues; the inanity of mass media and pop culture; shifting levels of reality. They’re all here, wrapped around, underlying, and enclosing a captivating story line.

Friday Freewrite Fifteen

This is going to be a fast fifteen freewrite. I used to do these so much more than I do now, but that is OK. I do love to get all the thoughts swirling around in my head.

Yesterday, I sat down with C for a stimulating conversation. Her husband is new on staff with our church, and I just love her. We have a lot in common, and it was just a fun and easy talk. Turns out she went to high school with one of my sorority sisters. Such a small world. 

C said, "I know you are just so busy."
I said, "Actually, no. I just have lots of different pieces but they all interact together."

For instance, this morning, I had someone post that they are looking for someone who does cross-cultural spiritual direction. I do it, but someone else suggested a certain person in the region where the person asking the question is. Well, that person suggested is in another one of my pots. So I am making the connection for the person asking. Those two pots are too separate "jobs" I have, but they interconnect. 

So my pots are right now:

1) 2nd Half Collaborative - that is most on my mind right now because I am going to the Midwest in a week to help facilitate a retreat. All the people I facilitate with are with one of the agencies in #4. 

2) Deepen III (and maybe Deepen II) - I supervise a group of new directors who are doing Cross-Cultural Direction. I am also going to give a talk on that to the Deepen III supervisors and new directors when I get back from #1.

3) Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius (scroll down) - I am going to lead two women through these starting in mid-September. I spent the last two days working out the liturgical year schedule. One woman is related to #4 and the other is related to #1. 

This video explains the Exercises:



4) International Agencies - I do spiritual direction with people from five different agencies that work internationally. I do extra work for one that I have been involved in for the last 29 years by creating help (videos and handouts mostly) in their intimacy with God and care of their soul. I do a lot of "spontaneous soul care" with the workers from this particular agency. 

I am big on the Cycle of Grace as a spine. 


And the Cycle of Grace relates to #1 above. I help the other ones in the same way as my materials are passed on to people in their agencies. :) 

5) Sustainable Faith School of Spiritual Direction - I am one of the Affiliates; and in October, I will start helping my spiritual direction trainers in their training of new directors. This relates to all but #2 because many of the people I am involved with in these different groups have also been trained by Sustainable Faith. But could there be a "wing" of Sustainable Faith that specializes in #2? Could they join forces? Could I be a bridge to seeing that happen? Stay tuned!!

6) Body and Soul Companion - I have a private ministry with individual directees. Some are related to the other four, and some are local leaders. I lead some of them through the Exercises. Most are associated with #4. Many are from other cultures and religious backgrounds. (Thus why I am being asked to speak on "Cross-Cultural Spiritual Direction" (and I am NO EXPERT). 

7) Local "Seed Community" - This started from something we did related to one of the agencies in  #4. We are considered the "pastors." (I don't think of myself this way though, but we have become that for signing off to send them out into the world.)

8) Order of the Mustard Seed - I co-lead a Centering Prayer time two times a week. I also occasionally lead Prayer Watches for the OMS. Many people in the OMS are being trained through Sustainable Faith, and I am thrilled. 

Later on Friday:

9) Renovare Book Club - I realized this in a discussion with my friend (2 1/2 hours and so fun). I forgot this pot. Such a good entry into all things Spiritual Formation. I am so grateful for Renovare, Richard Foster, and Dallas Willard!
