What's Brewing at Morning Blend April-May 2014? Mudhouse Sabbath!

Beginning April 23rd, the women of Morning Blend will be studying  Mudhouse Sabbath: Seven Ways of Christian Formation Inspired by the Jewishness of Jesus by Lauren Winner. We heard from Lauren Winner in our previous study, Animate: Faith, in the 6th session, Bible: A Book Like No Other. Here's a quick video of Ms. Winner describing Mudhouse Sabbath:

The product description says this about her DVD workshop:

"Its not just that Jesus was a Jew, Jesus still is a Jew. Engaging Jewish practice and tradition is one important way of overcoming the gaps that we sometimes feel exist between Jesus and ourselves." So begins Lauren Winner on the powerful new Mudhouse Sabbath DVD. Designed to be a course in Christian formation all by itself, or as a companion to her bestselling book, this resource will challenge you to:

* Encounter the Jewish context that nurtured Jesus
* Explore spiritual practices of hospitality, mindful eating, prayer and fasting, and mourning
* Deepen your Christian faith by incorporating these things into your life
