Prayer Practice | “Beauty from Ephrem the Syrian” | Karen Marsh

This week, we share a  "Space for God: Beauty" reflection from Karen Wright Marsh (author and executive director of Theological Horizons in Charlottesville, VA). She introduces us to the life and work of Ephrem the Syrian.  The "lyric theology" of this 4th Century Christian pastor, poet, refugee, and songwriter has the power to refresh our perspectives even today. Karen concludes our time together by listening prayerfully to a recording of Ephrem's "Hymn to the Light." You can read an English translation of the lyrics in our shownotes.
