A Journey Home: Cultivating a Theology of Place
Written by: Dustin Moody at Denver Institute for Faith & Work Something seemed…off. It wasn’t so much that I was dissatisfied where I was; I had a home that I was proud of, a job that was sufficiently enjoyable and professionally challenging, and family and friends that helped to create a community that I loved.
