You Are Sought — Letters From Outside the Camp by Carmen Acevedo Butcher

About this sermon

“On a quiet Sunday morning, we’re invited into the space of steeping together in words as delicious morsels of wisdom inseparable from our living. We walk with the mystics Mary Oliver, Catherine of Siena, and Elizabeth of the Trinity, who help us live with, out, and from this word: “‘I am sought, I am loved.’ This is what is true, all the rest is not.”” — Carmen Acevedo Butcher LETTERS FROM OUTSIDE THE CAMP Letters from Outside the Camp is a space where contemplative voices reflect in real time on the world we’re actually living in — faith and doubt, culture and power, grief and hope, and the ordinary work of becoming human. We imagine this Substack as a public commons, a place for contemplative reflection, honest dialogue, and courageous questions. These essays or videos aren’t meant to offer final answers. They are invitations to slow down, look again, and consider how spiritual wisdom might meet the realities of daily life.
