Pray and Paddle with Wendell Berry

On Lake Cochichewick we share in Lectio Divina, an ancient practice of
listening to a piece of sacred wisdom, three times. Each reading includes a
question to ponder followed by an extended time of paddling in silence. On
this paddle we will be accompanied by the wisdom of poet and prophet
Wendell Berry.
A prophet’s gift and calling is to know the present with such penetrating
insight that the community the prophet serves gains a sense of God’s truth
and will. Such is the gift of Wendell Berry a Kentucky farmer,
environmental prophet and poet who calls us to connect to the Creator as
we learn from and seek to be wise stewards of the natural world. Berry’s
sentinel poem: ‘The Peace of Wild Things’.
