Today’s the deadline for draft contributions to our upcoming issue on sacred spaces. While we’ve had a few suggestions for feature articles bouncing around, little seems to have taken hold. This must be one of those times when we incorporate fervent prayer to try to find enough content to make an issue reality. It’s an appropriate theme for it.

In all seriousness, the doors are wide open for any interested writers. Here is what features editor Tara wrote a few weeks back:

This theme can potentially go in many different directions, from articles dealing with traditional sacred spaces to more unconventional approaches.

Think about what spaces you consider sacred. Is it even a concrete or physical place? What makes this space sacred? Why do we create sacred places? How do we create these places? Is it important that we have places that are considered sacred? How have sacred spaces changed over time? Do spaces ever lose their sacred quality?
