After focusing for some months on qualities necessary for spiritual formation from 2 Peter, Chapter 1, Peter Fitch starts a new series of talks. This one is on some of the psalms that he particularly loves. Today, he starts the series by discussing the two paths of goodness and wickedness that he sees described in Psalm 1. This leads to a discussion of whether or not God has favourites, and it also touches on questions about hell, something Peter thinks is badly understood. Part way through the talk he leads in a Lectio exercise to help people move from meditation to contemplation. Then he finishes with ideas about bees from Preston Pouteaux’s book, The Bees of Rainbow Falls. This author uses the craftsmanship of bees as an illustration of how we can all enrich and curate our neighbourhoods (something that flows from the desire for goodness seen in Psalm 1).
