The Slow Work of Formation
Pause with what you have read. What has stayed with you, and what might it ask of your next ordinary day?
Carry the reading into your life.
- What part of my growth needs patience and support?
- What is one repeated practice teaching me to love?
- Does my picture of progress include truthfulness, care, rest, and shared life?
Choose one question to hold in prayer. Consider one response you can practice with the time, relationships, and responsibilities you have.
Continue when you are ready, or return to a reading that needs more time.
