Life-Giving Ways: January 2022


Spirituality is how we live and breathe and work. It is the way in which our values and beliefs show up in our words and our actions. Our spirituality is evident in how we spend our money, spend our time, invest our energies, honor relationships, and treat our planet. Erich Fromm, a German social psychologist and Holocaust survivor, posed two questions still relevant today. Are we living and breathing in a way that is life-giving for us, for those in close relationship with us, and for the broader community? Or are we living and breathing in a way that is deadly for us, for those in close relationship with us, and for the broader community?


Thoughtfully,
