The Color of Dust

24. Everything Can Be Ritual


Listen Later

What at first appears to be a meandering in the pasture of a Kansas sheepfold, turns into a profound meditation on the presence of God in our daily routines, the people that cross our paths, and our acts done when no one seems to be watching. Our text for the episode is Ruth 3:11, “And now, my daughter, do not fear. I will do for you all that you ask, for all my fellow townsmen know that you are a worthy woman.” From this we discover that everything can be ritual.

Please let us know what you think about our weekly episodes, and tell us about some of your own meaningful rituals. The music for the episode was written and produced Jack Baumgartner.
