Finished reading: Counting the Cost by Clemens Sedmak 📚

This book is a terrific exploration of what it means to integrate values into the work of organizational budgeting.

10/10 - required reading for mission leaders, faith-based organization executives, and finance leaders everywhere.

A quote from _Counting the Cost_, by Clemens Sedmak and Kelli Reagan Hickey: We claim that financial decisions are moral decisions and also spiritual decisions, decisions that reflect values, but also decisions that shed light on the ultimate questions of mission and purpose.


Someone just unironically asked me:

Is the pope Catholic?


Happy 100th Birthday, Brother Alberic!

When asked about what drew him to monastic life he answered, “Nothing. It wasn’t attractive at all.” It just got into his head that it was something he ought to do, he said, and the idea wouldn’t go away.

I love this response so much! Vocations are mysterious.
