Ancient Christian practice for modern life. Hearts up!

Writing on Substack that moved, inspired, challenged or entertained me this week.

Today's church needs to be 'technology-based'. The church's secret weapon of love in a lonely and fractured world is in-person gathering. AND - to make that happen (and have the time necessary to nurture it), we must use digital platforms and tools to make it easier - and more effective.

Are you 'stuck' in your ministry? Ask Father Cathie.
