What if our memories are like shells we gather on a beach? According to Casey Tygrett, how we carry and hold onto these memories - both good and bad - is a part of what forms us spiritually. In this interview, Casey discusses his new book, As I Recall: Discovering the Place of Memories in Our Spiritual Life, and explores how memory has shaped our experience with God and spirituality and how there are biblical texts and practices to guide us in bringing our memories back to God for spiritual transformation. As he writes, "memories are the raw material that God can shape into wisdom if we engage our wandering ways with him."
