Bread For The Journey with Wayne Muller

MP3 Download

A minister and therapist who has spent the last twenty years working with the homeless, adult children of abuse, and people with life-threatening illness, Wayne Muller has learned that while pain is inevitable, suffering is not. A catastrophe often wakes us up to what really matters in life, and the pursuit of more meaning in our lives. By surrounding ourselves with the things and people we love, we become energized and are reminded "how beautiful and joyous things can be. We're pulled forward rather than pushed from behind by responsibilities and requirements that end up being excess weight on our back." (hosted by Michael Toms & Mark Walstrom)
