The Common Rule

The Common Rule is a very accessible book by Justin Earley. It is exploring his own experience in developing a Rule of Life, and explores some of the challenges he faced in seeking to do so. You’ll have heard me talk about it at DTP this week, and the homework is to explore the website: www.thecommonrule.org

There is a section on Sabbath, which dovetails nicely with what we’ve been looking at in our last session. If you’re pressed for time, just do that, and look at other sections as we go through the term. It may or may not be helpful. There is not expectation that you’ll put all or any of it into practise. Some of it you may disagree with. But if something in there is helpful, feel free to use it!

I’ll be recommending various resources throughout the term - not with an expectation that you’ll read them all, but rather in the hope that one or two of them might work… Hope this one does.
