The Newsletter of CenteredLife.org - June 2005

>	*"Living as Found People"* First in a four-part sermon series introducing Centered Life.

>	*God at Work* Small group "ice breaker" highlighting God's creative work in the world.
	"The Christian shoemaker does his Christian duty not by putting little crosses on the shoes, but by making good shoes, because God is interested in good craftsmanship." -Martin Luther more

>	*Meaningful Worship & Spiritual Disciplines* "The Closet, the House, and the Sanctuary" from The Christian Century
	People "bring needs to express in worship and prayer which are impossible for the corporate sanctuary service to satisfy. We have promised more through the 'go to church' admonition than we can deliver." more
