In a chapter entitled “Topos and Kairos”, Eugene Peterson lays out principles for being locally content and personally present in a place: Â notice the small, persevere in the commonplace, appreciate the obscure. Â Anxiety in home and school stems from believing the modern myths that we should be pursuing the ideals of safety and convenience. Â One of the key elements in creating ordered lives in homes and schools is to cultivate habits of the soul that move us from being “consumers” of a place to being “contributors”. Â What are these habits and how are they cultivated?
