~ Soul Rhythms ~

In our experience of the Christian life, we have recognized several different rhythms of faith common to each of our journeys. These do not represent levels of faith where higher means better, rather they are distinct beats in a constant pattern of the soul.


Our Spiritual Heartbeat: The Rhythm of the Soul…

"Look, here I stand at the door and knock. If you hear me calling and open the door, I will come in and we will share a meal as friends." (Revelation 3.20)

The Searching Heart - A heart that is seeking to find renewal in Christ.

The Speaking Heart - A heart that is opening up to Christ.

The Sharing Heart - A heart that desires deeper relationship with Christ.

The Stretching Heart - A heart that is growing in Christ.

The Serving Heart - A heart that is ministering because of Christ.

"God is in the here and now...It is we who are not. It is we who are trapped in the past, angry at what formed us, or fixated on a future that is free from pain or totally under our control. But God is in our present, waiting for us there"

Joan Chittister, OSB
