Hope: A Pessimist’s Guide

Hope: A Pessimist’s Guide September 22, 2011

Over at Darkwood Brew, the experimental online worship community that blends contemplative practices, jazz music and skype video guests in a cool coffeehouse setting, the Rev. Eric Elnes is getting ready to start a series on Hope.  I can’t imagine a better time to drop in on this community as they share stories of hope each week. And I happen to know that one of the first guests to be interviewed will be the contemplative sage Richard Foster, author of the classic book on spiritual disciplines, Celebration of Discipline, and the newly released Sanctuary of the Soul.  Richard and Eric will be reflecting on meditative prayer as a way to listen deeply to God in dark times — and how that can be a practice of hope.  Check out the show trailer below, and then tune in beginning this Sunday…
