Book cover for How Your Church Family Works: Understanding Congregations as Emotional Systems
parishioners and congregants displace their personal and family anxieties into institutions that are already caught up in the collective anxiety of the human family.

“Loving You —after Deuteronomy 6:4–9 Loving You with every beat of my heart, with every breath of my mouth, with all I am and all I have, I affirm the truth of Your Being. Teaching Your love to children, I secure knowledge of You for another generation. Speaking of You when sitting at home, I make my dwelling a sanctuary for self and other. Sharing Your wisdom when walking outside, I make my life a message of hope. Affirming You when lying down I forgive and ask for forgiveness. Proclaiming You when rising up, I dedicate my day to Your Will. Living in You I glove my hands with compassion, and my deeds with justice. I open my eyes to Your Wisdom that my vision be daring and true. I mark moments of meeting with knowledge of Your Presence that my going out and my coming home be in peace.”
Mark S. Burrows, The Paraclete Poetry Anthology: New and Selected Poems

Simone Weil
“To be rooted is perhaps the most important and least recognized need of the human soul.”
Simone Weil

Andrew Murray
“Unless we are willing to pay the price, to sacrifice time and attention and seemingly legitimate or necessary tasks for the sake of the spiritual gifts, we need not look for much power from above in our work.”
Andrew Murray, The Ministry of Intercessory Prayer
