Come On In

Finding God in the marketplace is very difficult for most of us because we are easily distracted by the mundane or profane (from the Latin meaning “outside the temple”). A sacred place, like anything sacred, is something set apart or different from what is normal for us. When we enter a cathedral filled with masterpieces and architectural wonders or a simple country church set amid a breathtaking landscape, or any place where we know holy things have happened, we are readily transported to the dwelling place of the divine, where souls are stirred, minds are enlightened, bodies are healed, and sins are forgiven. Step out of your routine and enter a sacred space.
