A simple life
Eden's Path - detail of our house from a painting by Debbie.
Debbie and I created a new blog to record our journey toward a simpler life. Eden's Path features the practical things we are doing to spend less, enjoy life more, and live in the rhythm of God's grace.
The name, Eden's Path, comes from an old Celtic Christian saying that life on this earth is like living with "one foot in Eden." We believe that God's creation is good, that we live with the earth, not just on it. We're also trying to consume less, despite the encouragement of our government for us to spend more. Evermore growth will not solve our spiritual, social, or economic problems. Being better stewards of God's gifts to us will, we believe.
So, if you have time, stop over. We mostly are telling the stories about what we're doing to find the simple life of faith, hope, and dreams. I'm not sure if it will take us to Eden, but at least we'll be on the path.
