This is our third video on focusing. Focusing is a life-giving spiritual meditation that honors the wisdom that lies within us. Focusing speaks to us in a way that can be felt in our bodies.
Undoubtedly, we are living in troubled times, not only in our nation but in the world and people are looking for ways to handle their emotional responses in a healthy way.
If that sounds familiar to you, perhaps focusing is something you might want to try.
All the focusing videos are here.
Articles about focusing can be found here. The first article gives an overview. The second article gives the specific steps of focusing, which is something you can do at home either by yourself or with a partner.
I’d be happy to talk to you about focusing. You can contact me by sending an email to info@pbrenewalcenter.org or calling 816-558-6314 and leaving a message.
Note: The focusing series is a part of a larger series of articles we call An Invitation to Something New: The Contemplative Life.

An Assembling God’s Puzzle video
By Fr. Garry Richmeier
It seems to be part of our DNA to sort everything in life into two categories — right or wrong, good or bad. Of course, we are always on the “right” side and to demonstrate our “rightness” we demonize the other side and problems ensue. How can we break the cycle?

I hope that my reflections make you more attentive to the Eucharistic Prayer at the next Mass you attend. When you really listen to the readings and the prayers, the pieces of the puzzle of the Mass come together and you see the incredible vision God has for us.
