This week Mother Natalia uses a reflection from Bishop John Michael Botean about work as her inspiration for today's episode. Mother Natalia reflects on work, both what it is and what it is not. She uses quotes from the Church Fathers to help our understanding, and gives practical examples of how to live a life more focused on God and less focused on work.References:The Endow PodcastEpisode with Father Deacon Jonathan - Ontology and Image, Likeness and DestinyWhat Leisure is Not with Mother GabriellaBabette's Feast (Trailer)Bridegroom's Banquet - the monastery's annual fundraiser is Saturday, September 10th.
