A Christian believer's reflections on faith, doubt, and life on the periphery of our culture, society, and world.
Until we realize that it is better, more useful, and more productive of strength to spend 10 minutes each morning in feeling and finding the Eternal than in flicking the newspaper - that this will send us off to our day's work properly oriented, gathered together, recollected, and really endowed with new power for dealing with circumstance - then we have not begun to live the life of the Spirit, or grasped the practical connection between such a daily discipline and the power of doing our best work, whatever it may be.
Evelyn Underhill (The Life of the Spirit and the Life of Today, 1920)
