I liked this more than I expected to. It’s quiet and reflective. Not theological in a heavy way, but more like someone trying to live out their beliefs in solitude. It reminded me a little of time I spent at a Benedictine retreat a few years back. Very grounded.

Not every part resonated with me, but I appreciated the honesty in it.
