Contemplation with Deb Steinkamp
CLICK HERE TO LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS
In our current series of podcasts, we are exploring the topic of contemplation. What does contemplation mean and how does it impact the way we show up in the world? I’m hoping that these conversations will be a contemplative experience, so I invite you to join us, engage and be open as we discuss our guest’s spiritual journey and contemplative experiences.
Our guest today is...
Deb Steinkamp
Deb says, “I have been active in the contemplative, Christian community ever since I first experienced a sense of God’s constantly abiding presence with me. Dick Steinkamp and I have been married for 54 years. We love spending time with our 3 kids and 6 grandkids. We also enjoy travel, hiking, and kayaking. In all of that, and in my work as a Spiritual Director, I discover God’s loving presence."
Deb is a good friend and it is such a delight to talk with her to learn more about her journey and her views and experience with contemplation.

"'To Live in the Mercy of God' with Deb Steinkamp"
During this series, we have asked each guest to share a mediation. Deb reads a poem by Denise Levertov called "To Live in the Mercy of God." She reads it twice. In the first reading, she invites us to just listen. In the second reading she invites us to notice what catches our attention, what feeling remains in our body, and how the poem has spoken to us today.
You can follow along and read a copyright version of 'To Live in the Mercy of God" here.
