You’ve come to a place where chasing wonder is both a virtue and a goal. It’s a place where we agree that easy answers and oversimplified shouting matches accomplish little. And honestly, isn’t life much too interesting for all the dull drivel we listen to day after day? Let’s stop settling.
Instead, starting right now, let’s embrace the complexity of all that’s around us. Let’s cherish every precious minute we’re alive.
Let’s chase wonder like our life depends on it.
What to Expect
The Wonder Report is a newsletter filled with essays and reflections about chasing wonder into every corner of our lives. The occasional missives explore nature and the seasons; art, literature, and culture; family and friendship; church, the sacraments and the church calendar, and so much more. I usually send the Wonder Report on Friday evenings so readers can take time throughout the weekend to read and consider, though don’t be surprised if I occasionally pop into your inbox at other times, too.
“Always be on the lookout for the presence of wonder.” ~ EB White
