CREATING SPACE FOR REORIENTING A MESSY SPIRITUALITY WITH ARTISAN BEER


For centuries, monasteries served as bastions of civility, preserving, learning and extending charity to those around them. In this context, people were orientated into a rich tradition of artisan beer making. The tradition was one that provided for the poor, created conversations, and evidenced a belief in a God who desires to see life and creativity flourish.

Sadly, this sacred craft has all but disappeared from the Church today. We have become disoriented. For this reason Northland Village Church (www.northlandvillagechurch.com) and Strategic Monk (www.strategicmonk.com) have partnered to create trilogy of reorientation for those who choose to participate with the craft. 

Thus, we hope that this beer will be some fruit of our labor. We hope enjoying it will spark good dialogue and create a space for deep reflection on the beauty of this life as we attempt to reorient our messy spirituality and brewing back toward something more real. 

Through the generosity of the people at Northland Village Church we will be providing a FREE BEER for anyone who dares with the hopes of connecting their spirit with the mysterious medium of beer. (Only 21 and over event and alternatives to alcohol will also be provided.)
