“Sacramental living is a way of spiritual formation that sees all of creation as the means by which we can encounter the living God. He stands outside creation and simultaneously meets us through it. This has profound implications for our lives. If God is present through elements of water, bread, oil, and wine, he most certainly is present through our bodies as well.

To put it simply, we are not just to receive sacraments; we are to become them.”
