Leisure

Join us for the first-ever in-person episode of The Pilgrim Soul! During their vacation together in Idaho, Giuli, Sofi and Adrianna had a conversation about leisure. What is leisure? How are we tempted to distort it? What instead is its right relationship to prayer, work, and community? How are we educated in a true use of our free time? // Our media recommendation is Louis Armstrong’s song What a Wonderful World, which you can find on Spotify or on YouTube. Our monthly challenge is to take a moment one evening to look at the stars. // We’d love to hear from you! Write to us at pilgrimsoulpodcast@gmail.com or find us on Instagram at @pilgrimsoulpodcast. Our website is www.pilgrimsoulpodcast.com. // Other resources we mention: Josef Pieper’s book “Leisure, the Basis of Culture” Fr. Luigi Giussani’s book “The Religious Sense” The Diary of St. Faustina Kowalska An excerpt from The Portal of the Mystery of Hope, a poem by Charles Peguy \\ Our theme music is Nich Lampson’s “Dolphin Kicks."
