The ExploraStory Cafe is a gathering place for people who want to more deeply explore the connection between their faith and daily life. We welcome a richly diverse group of people with a variety of backgrounds, and with different beliefs about God and life. We invite you to come here often, to share this site with your friends and family members, and to freely share your own perspectives about life and spirituality with others through the comments you post. But, we also ask you to listen and to respect the ideas of other people because the ExploraStory Cafe is not a place for doctrinal disputes and religious quarrels.
We want to hear your story. We want to hear about ways that you have experienced God’s presence. We, also, want to hear about how you have incorporated the truths of your faith into your daily routine.
Welcome, again, to the ExploraStory Cafe!
We hope that you’ll find something here that can help you make a deeper connection between your faith and daily life. We, also, hope you’ll share some of the things that you’ve learned in your own journey; so that, we can all gain new perspectives, fresh ideas, and deeper insights.
Good morning,
I was just connected to your blog via a friend. I am the editor for our Faith & Money (http://www.umfne.org/home/faith-money-2/) monthly newsletter. I am wondering if I can have permission to use “What a Restaurant can Teach the Church about Hospitality” for July’s edition. If I could receive it as a PDF with your logo/branding so that we could link to it, that would really be great. I am not sure who wrote this article (was it Wayne?) but I’d want to make sure they are acknowledged. Thank you.
