A way, a journey, a track, a path, a maze, a labyrinth….Most of us need Hope on our way! In this podcast Allison Smith shares questions, insights, & hope in these complex somewhat crazy times. The earliest followers of Jesus were called people of “The Way.” They had a deep commitment to practice Love & that small imperfect group let their light shine! So, if you have ever been outside & felt the awe of creation, or breathed deeply & found peace, or had a nudge to help someone else, this podcast is for you. God’s got hope for You on your “way” as together we can seek to be people of The Way.
How good a listener are you? The spiritual practice of listening can help us meet God--in both the quiet and the loud spaces we find ourselves in.

God Knows What You Need
Scripture: Luke 12:22-34
"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."
How much do we really need? Are you starting to receive a lot of Christmas catalogs? Today we contemplate Jesus' message about the lilies in the fields, discuss planned obsolescence and light bulbs, look at how intentional giving is a way to work out your faith muscle and I share a story about trick or treaters who ended up putting candy into a neighbor's Halloween plate instead of taking candy out. Somehow it will all relate--I promise!

It's a process for sure! God is not done with us yet! FB @cumberlanducc www.cumberlanducc.org (http://www.cumberlanducc.org/). *Begins with music composed by Gregory Greenleaf and a centering prayer.
