An Altar in the World: A Geography of Faith Book Study

Thursdays, September 24-October 15, 2026

10:30-11:30am, McKelvey Room

Many of us spend our lives looking for God in the extraordinary, but what if God is already meeting us in the ordinary moments of everyday life? Join us this fall for a four-week book study of An Altar in the World by Barbara Brown Taylor. Led by Cyndi Rehling, this thoughtful and welcoming group will explore Taylor's invitation to discover that everyday life can become sacred ground. Through stories, reflection, and conversation, we'll consider simple practices that help us become more aware of God's presence in our daily routines, relationships, work, rest, and the world around us. Together, we'll discover that faith isn't only found in sanctuaries or special moments; it can be practiced wherever we are. You can register for this book study here.
