The COVID-19 cases are carrying into scary territory. It felt somewhat manageable two weeks ago. Now I’m feeling very concerned. How can I shore up those habits that draw me and my loved ones toward health, safety, inner peace, even joy? How to continue living well while also understanding and responding to the science we see on charts and from Johns Hopkins?

As things seem to be sinking deeper and deeper, how can we invest in remaining spiritually unsinkable?

I’m never quite sure what to call that space within us that houses and fosters resilience or spiritual unsinkability. I often refer to it in church conversations as the space or sense that “it is well with my soul.” If you do not know this hymn, check out the lyrics.
