The Spiritual Discipline of Reading on the Porch

What if reading on the porch is more than a pleasant summer pastime? Perhaps it is a spiritual discipline that teaches us to slow down, pay attention, and rediscover God’s presence in ordinary moments. In a season that celebrates growth, this light-hearted reflection invites us to receive the gift of rest, one page—and one peaceful afternoon—at a time.

Bang! The familiar sound of a summer screen door once meant neighbours dropping by, children racing in and out, and homes that always seemed ready for one more guest. In this lighthearted reflection, Rev. Don Davidson explores how that simple summer sound still has something to teach us about hospitality, belonging, and the Gospel’s invitation to leave the door—and our hearts—open.
