“This makes me wonder if my serendipitous experiences of the past year are foretastes. If this is where God is taking things, could a church-without-walls simply be the spiritual re-enchantment of all of life?”
— John Van Sloten
I really enjoyed getting to talk with John Van Sloten a few weeks ago. With a deeply humble and calming voice, I found John’s stories about his son Edward and himself to be powerfully inspiring. Edward’s joy and delight in life no doubt comes from his relationship with his earthly father, but also a deeply profound faith and relationship with his Heavenly Father!
Thanks for listening to The Well Dwellers Podcast! This episode is public so feel free to share it.
Together, John and I talk about his writings, experiences within the community, and particularly in the ways people with disabilities find meaning and purpose in work and vocational callings.
There is a lot of good stuff we cover here over the course of an hour. I hope you might listen to this episode and find it connecting with much of your own story and life within community and calling!
