Greetings Time Eternalites! Lent is only 20 days away 😱 but I'm so excited!
This time six years ago, I was beginning research for a podcast miniseries called "Time and Despondency" on Time Eternal. I wanted to better understand the link between the spiritual sickness of despondency (akedia in the original Greek) and the broken way we often experience time in this world.
What I thought would turn out to be "just" a fun little series for Lent 2016 was soon expanded into a book published by Ancient Faith Ministries, which in turn has grown into countless wonderful conversations, retreats, correspondences, book clubs, friendships, and connections with gracious readers and fellow despondents from around the world. 🥰🌍
This Lent, 2023, I'm expanding the Time and Despondency cinematic universe even further -- in the form of a group coaching program based on the book!
This is more than a book club... Think of it as a book QUEST.
We'll be using Time and Despondency in combination with weekly group coaching sessions, a guided workbook, and Orthodox reflections and practices, to draw closer to Christ in the present moment together.
There are limited spots, so sign up as soon as you can!
