Heart to Heart Columns

Each Saturday, at the top of the Religion page in the Eugene Register-Guard, individuals from the LIA interfaith community write a 500-word article about some aspect dear to their heart from their spiritual tradition's teachings and practice and their own experiences.

The purpose of this column is to contribute to the growing realization that spirituality does uplift the human spirit and can solve human as well as community problems. Guidelines to submit articles.
