How we view the world matters. Somedays we get up expecting the best of everything. Other days, we wake up “on the wrong side of the bed.” Somedays we hear our friends and neighbors in their best voice; other days we are less generous. On Sundays, most of us will set aside time for our faith. On other days, we may or may not consider the bigger picture. This Sunday, we will explore what would happen if we allowed our faith to influence how we see the world every day. Let me (Mitra) suggest that cultivating a theological lens through which to view the world might change the way we live and ultimately make our lives more joyful.
