Today the Episcopal Church remembers Evelyn Underhill. This post is from three years ago. However, the truth of Underhill’s words echo loudly. The Church needs more voices like hers and more lives, lay and ordained, like she describes.

…great post…its not often that we hear a Priest advocating the interior spirituality of the likes of Evelyn Underhill..I applaud you…my own journey with/in Christ has led me inward into the silence..I had no idea of what and how much i was missing out on…

If priests and the Church have no interior life then we have nothing to offer the world. My own prejudice is that the future of the Church depends on recovering the inner life. That has to include intentional silence.
Peace,
