You can listen to the episode here!

Kitchen Table spirituality is a weekly devotional by Reverend Charley Eastman and Reverend Jonathan Malone.

This week Jonathan and Charley start to look at Thirst, a collection of poems by Mary Oliver.

Jonathan started the conversation by reading and reflecting on the poem “Making the House Ready for the Lord.”

Charley then offered the poem, “Mozart, for Example.”

Next week, two more poems!

The prayer that Charley offered was “Percy (Four)”

I went to church.

I walked on the beach

and played with Percy.

I answered the phone

and paid the bills.

I did the laundry.

I spoke her name

a hundred times.

I knelt in the dark

and said some holy words.

I went downstairs,

I watered the flowers,

I fed Percy.
