About Ordinary Life
An Educational Offering of St. Paul’s United Methodist Church, Houston
Ordinary Life is a fresh, inclusive, and engaging educational experience for people seeking a meaningful spiritual path outside traditional religious boundaries. Rooted in the rich wisdom of the past and open to the cutting-edge insights of contemporary thought, we explore credible, transformative approaches to religion and spirituality.
We are a community for those who may not feel at home in conventional church settings—yet long for depth, connection, and purpose. Here, we create a crucible for personal growth, where individuals deepen their self-awareness, build authentic relationships, and grow in spiritual intelligence.
Grounded in global consciousness and local action, Ordinary Life empowers participants to live with compassion, act with wisdom, and contribute to the survival of the planet. We embrace mysticism, challenge outdated paradigms, and seek to leave each gathering with hope, comfort, and the clarity that we can make a difference in the world.
At its heart, Ordinary Life reflects the mission of St. Paul’s—a cathedral for Houston’s diversity—to inspire faith, nurture community, and lead change for the common good.
