A lecture given at L’Abri Fellowship in Southborough, Massachusetts. For more information, visit https://southboroughlabri.org/

by Sarah Chestnut

In this lecture, Sarah shares hr poem-prayer "A Liturgy of (Re)Dedication to the Way of the Amateur," recently published in Every Moment Holy Vol. III, and reflects on the questions and longings the prayer addresses: How might reclaiming the old meaning of "amateur" help us live into the freedom Christ gives? How do we cultivate the courage to try something new or to approach something old in a new way? What does a right relationship between work and identity look like?
