Walk Humbly: Encouragements for Living, Working, and Being

Samuel Wells

Read By: The Author

Max Ehrmann’s prose poem “Desiderata”, with its direct instructions – “go placidly”, “enjoy your achievements”, and others – has inspired millions of listeners.

In the spirit of Ehrmann’s “Desiderata”, world-renowned ethicist, theologian, and preacher Samuel Wells offers eight encouragements to listeners in Walk Humbly, his own more extended prose poem. Each simple, direct exhortation – be humble, be grateful, be your own size, be gentle, be a person of praise, be faithful, be one body, be a blessing – is accompanied by thought-provoking, insightful comments.

Drawing on startlingly perceptive observations of contemporary life and reflecting a deep knowledge of philosophical and religious wisdom, Wells’ Walk Humbly will inspire listeners to stop, reflect, and think deeply about essential existence.

Human Rites:
The Power of Rituals, Habits, and Sacraments

Dru Johnson

Read by:  Trevor Thompson

What are we doing when we gather around the sacraments – or when we make the same breakfast every morning? Embodying rituals, says Dru Johnson. And until we understand what we’re doing and why, we won’t know how these rituals work, what they mean, or how we might adapt them.

In Human Rites Johnson considers the concept of ritual as seen in Scripture and its role in shaping our thinking. He colorfully illustrates both the mundane and the sacred rituals that penetrate all of life, offering not only a helpful introduction to rituals but also a framework for understanding them. As he unpacks how rituals pervade every area of our lives, Johnson suggests biblical ways to focus our use of rituals, habits, and sacraments so that we can see the world more truly through them.
