A little healing.
A little hum in the dark.

Episode 6:  Truth Isn’t Fragile: Trusting the Questions That Won’t Leave You Alone
Prayer O Sacred Mystery,

the space between answers,

the quiet voice beneath the shouting ones,
the love that holds us when belief escapes us,
help us to trust the questions,

to welcome the doubt,

to walk the road
even when it winds and loops back on itself.

Remind us—
that when we doubt or question,
it doesn’t mean we’re lost.  It means we’re finding our way.  
MANTRAYour questions are not a threat. They are part of your path.

Episode 5: The Slow Return: Thawing Out and Trusting What Comes Next 
The ember for this episode:  Emotions
You can’t selectively numb.

If you mute your pain, you muffle your joy.

If you silence the grief, you muffle the wonder.

If you don’t give yourself permission to feel, eventually, you stop feeling anything.
PRAYER

God of every ember—

For the weary and the wondering,

For those who believe and those who don’t—

I pray for each person who listens.

That they might find what they need.

A little light.
A little rest.
A little grace.

Amen.
