This week on Deep in Christ, coming out of a busy summer break, we’ll take a few minutes with our good sister in Christ, St. Edith Stein (feast day August 9th!) to consider contemplative prayer amidst a busy life, and how the peace and fruitfulness of the latter depends on our commitment to the former.

Just as we need a Sabbath every week, we should be making and guarding a “Sabbath moment” every day, to make space for prayer and to see God present in our lives.
