Write Now!

This blog started as a 'Lenten Writing Project', where we wrote each day in Lent. Now that Summer is here, let's keep up the discipline of writing with a weekly writing challenge! A prompt will be posted each week and anyone is welcome to join in and post their writing here or participate just by reading it.

Every writer has their own special light to add to this blog and all of your writing offerings are appreciated, whether poetry, prose, essay, thoughts, lists or comments and encouragement.

Can you hymn a few bars...

What are some titles of hymns (that you make up) that would be relevent to church nowadays or to your faith?  You can make a list or you can write a whole hymn!

Creative Process

Genisis has a great account of God's creative process.  Re-read Genisis 1 and write a poem, or re-interpretation (from the point of view of God, the animals, etc.) of this creation process.  How is your creative process similar?  Write about creation.

Where Do You See an Altar in the World?

I've been reading Altar in the World: A Geography of Faith by Barbara Brown Taylor.   She talks about finding the sacred in the everyday.  Where have you noticed the sacred in the ordinary lately?  Notice this week the pieces of God that are in everyone and everything and write about it.  Also, if you have some extra time, read Barbara's book! : )

Renewal

What do you renew in your life?  What is your process or ritual around the things that you renew?  Your energy, your faith, or perhaps something more everyday.  Your coffee supply.  Your pet's licence.  Your commitment to something or someone.  How does this ritual and renewal renew your faith?
