Looking for faith-inspired literature to provide a break from your studies? If you’re a lover of great fiction, be sure to check out Luther Seminary Library’s Online Guide to Literature and the Arts. We feature classic Christian authors from Dante Alighieri to Frederick Buechner, Flannery O’Connor, and Marilynne Robinson—with her new book “The Beauty of Souls“—and many more. With this guide, you will also find the latest books on art, culture, and film as they relate to Christian faith.

We gather at 11:00 a.m. CT in the OCC Meditation Chapel and online (link in email) for contemplative practice of your choice—mindful sketching, centering prayer, or however you choose to engage silence. Facilitated by the Dean of the Chapel Steve Thomason, we will read the Psalm of the day and then practice in silence for 15 minutes. Afterward, you are welcome to sit in fellowship or go about your day.
