So this is a very powerful post for me, Pom.

I've always attended non-denominational churches, and though I love the feeling of freedom there, I think I've missed out on some of the celebrations (is that the right word?)such as Lent that I find so mysterious. Some of the feasts and celebrations of the Eastern Orthodox and Anglicans, for instance, add so much color and texture to our faith. They give some guidance to our worship and to our path of faith throughout life, whereas the churches I've attended kind of leave you to your own devices. I would love to read "Way of the Ascetics". It looks intriguing! :)<br />Enjoy your Lenten pursuits!Lisa Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00567160304529796810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6918710928117815584.post-73904178076173138482012-02-26T06:40:37.463-08:002012-02-26T06:40:37.463-08:00What a beautiful poem.
