Diana of Innermost House

About me

Introduction I am Diana Lorence of Innermost House. For seven years my husband and I lived in an unelectrified, twelve-foot-square house hidden in the woods, in a world lit only by fire. Our life in the woods answered my deepest need for something the world has left behind. But the house was hidden in a way I could not openly share. Now we have gone to seek a new Innermost House where we may offer a wider hospitality. This journal is a record of home-leaving and home-seeking. It is a sojourner’s retreat for conversation and all things concerning Innermost House and the Innermost Life wherever it is lived, in the Woods or in the World.
