An imaginative approach to religious engagement.
Baptism is central to all Christian formation, and ongoing Christian formation is central to a life of faith.
Designed for small groups of adult Episcopalians, the program is easily adaptable to other denominations, one-on-one spiritual mentoring, children, young adult, or intergenerational groups, and even to individuals for private meditation.
The eight group sessions in this book focus repeatedly on water, first as a natural element necessary to life, then as a symbolic element necessary to spirituality. Gradually, through prayer, song, scripture, silence, poetry, visual arts, storytelling, group discussion, and personal reflection, water--as a baptismal element--gains ascendancy. No longer merely occasional refreshment, Living Water inundates, becoming life's very medium. This text makes for excellent baptismal preparation but is intended for use by all Christians--those who are years into their journeys as well as those who are beginning.
