Business is a primary arrangement on God's part for people to love one another and serve one another.

"Spirituality" wrongly understood or pursued is a major source of human misery and rebellion against God.

The kingdom of God is the true ecology of the human soul.

The core of the person is what he or she loves, and that is bound up with what they worship - that insight recalibrates the radar for cultural analysis. The rituals and practices that form our loves spill out well beyond the sanctuary. Many secular liturgies are trying to get us to love some other kingdom and some other gods.

Other kingdoms are still present on earth along with the kingdom of the heavens. That is the human condition.

God may not guide us in an obvious way because he wants us to make decisions based on faith and character.

There is no cure for the social battles that we fight in our culture - and there's so much grief around race, gender, and so forth - until you eliminate "withdrawal" and "attack" and replace them with "acceptance" and "help." Once you do that and not just talk about it, these other issues will fall into place quickly. They will not fall into place at all unless it is done this way.
