SUMMARY:Falling Upward Book Study
DESCRIPTION:Many of us tend to think of the second half of life as largely about getting old\, dealing with health issues\, and letting go of life\, but the whole thesis of this book is exactly the opposite.  What looks like falling down can be experienced as “falling upward.” The book offers practical guidance that you can use to live a life of love and meaning in a world of suffering and challenge. \nLearn how we “grow spiritually much more by doing it wrong than by doing it right.” Understand why so many of us resist falling into the second half of life. \nRegister \nPastor Jon shares that author Richard Rohr is brilliant thinker and a wonderful writer. Father Rohr is a regular Sojourners and Tikkun magazines.
