United Methodeviations is now FaithQuest Revisited. Late last century, I created a Bible Study for The United Methodist Church called FaithQuest. Now, in retirement, I revisit key concepts of Christian discipleship and spiritual formation from a progressive, ecumenical, interfaith, political and cultural perspective.

Inspiration for My Advent Devotions

My Advent devotions this year are based on teachings and philosophy of the 6th century mystic, Dorotheos of Gaza. A few people have asked me to recommend a resource for a deeper dive into the mind and faith of Dorotheos. My favorite book is Dorotheos of Gaza: Discourses & Sayings.

    The Best Book You Will (Probably) Never Read

    FaithQuest Forum

    Our book discussion groups have not been successful so far, so we will try something a little different in the new year. Beginning in January, you are invited to join in discussions about a wide variety of topics concerning faith, values, spirituality, witness, engagement, and the transformation of the world. Stay tuned for Zoom information and schedule as well as upcoming topics. If you have suggestions for the FaithQuest Forum, please email me at doroteos58@gmail.com. My hope is that we can create an online community of support and creative engagement to help us all experience Spirit-led, Spirit-fed discipleship in everything we think, say, and do.
