Houston hosts talk about soulful spirituality

This Thursday 29 January at 7 p.m., Thomas Moore talks about "Deepening Our Spiritual Life" at St. Mark’s Episcopal Church in Houston, Texas. St. Mark's is located at 3816 Bellaire Blvd., between Stella Link/Weslayan and Buffalo Speedway. Contact the church office at 713 664-3466 for more information. Although this event is free, a $10 donation is suggested to help defray expenses. The presentation is sponsored by Memorial Hermann Hospital.

Moore says, "Talk about spirituality usually aims rather high: the pursuit of virtue, knowing the mysteries, self-improvement, the perfect person and the perfect community. But spirituality also needs depth: emotional substance, spirituality in the world and in everyday life, and a deeper, more nuanced understanding of the teachings. In other words, spirit needs soul. In this gathering, we'll consider concrete ways to become 'soulfully' spiritual."
