All are welcome to attend the new weekly book study, The Spirituality of Imperfection by Ernest Kurtz and Katherine Ketchum. We will cover one chapter each week on Wednesdays from 5-6:15pm. The first meeting will be August 19 in the dining room of Presbyterian House and will cover the introduction and chapter one. There are 16 chapters with the final chapter on the day before Thanksgiving. Books will be available in the office beginning Wednesday, August 12 from 9am-1pm. This book has been around for over 30 years and continues to be a life changing experiential resource for those seeking a deeper understanding of spirituality.
I Am Not Perfect is a simple statement of profound truth, the first step toward understanding the human condition, for to deny your essential imperfection is to deny yourself and your own humanity. The spirituality of imperfection, steeped in the rich traditions of the Hebrew prophets and Greek thinkers, Buddhist sages and Christian disciples, is a message as timeless as it is timely. This insightful work draws on the wisdom stories of the ages to provide an extraordinary wellspring of hope and inspiration to anyone thirsting for spiritual growth and guidance in these troubled times.
Who are we? Why do we so often fall short of our goals for ourselves and others? By seeking to understand our limitations and accept the inevitably of failure and pain, we begin to ease the hurt and move toward a greater sense of serenity and self-awareness. The Spirituality Of Imperfection brings together stories from many spiritual and philosophical paths, weaving past traditions into a spirituality and a new way of thinking and living that works today. It speaks to anyone who yearns to find meaning within suffering. Beyond theory and technique, inside this remarkable book you will find a new way of thinking, a way of living that enables a truly human existence.
