MW026 – Minister & Author, Edward Viljoen: The Effortless Path To A Life Of Meaning & Beauty
When life’s filled with changes and sudden turns, how do you respond? There’s always that person you know or read/hear about that indisputably reassures you that it’ll all work out; but how are they SO sure? Author and Senior Minister, Edward Viljoen, shares ways that you can find “awe-moments,” in ordinary days, develop an inner knowing, and build a survival kit to navigate through the tragedies and chaos of life.
Edward believes that the completely fulfilled life is comprised of garden-variety acts of kindness, faith, and compassion. His latest book, Ordinary Goodness: The Surprisingly Effortless Path To Create A Life Of Meaning And Beauty serves as a guide to those seeking simple ways to create a life well-lived grounded in deep compassion for ourselves and the world around us. Edward is the Senior Minister at the Center for Spiritual Living in Santa Rosa, California. But, he’s traveled to our “meaningful” part of the universe to offer up some practical tips.
Learn how to live fulfilled and inspired-- even through the ordinary-- and starting at your next hello!

The pause button. The world can be chaotic, telling you that extraordinary things need to be SPECTACULAR to be worthwhile, that things need to be done quickly and need to be the BEST.
