There is no greater gift to future generations than that we do the work God has asked us to do: love one another, that the world might be made right.

Organized religious institutions are in for a huge transformation, for the simple reason that people have become genuinely religious in spite of them.

We need less posturing and more genuine charisma. Charisma was originally a religious term, meaning "of the spirit" or "inspired." It's about letting God's light shine through us. It's about a sparkle in people that money can't buy. It's an invisible energy with visible effects. To let go, to just love, is not to fade into the wallpaper. Quite the contrary, it's when we truly become bright. We're letting our own light shine.

God created the law of free will, and God created the law of cause and effect. And he himself will not violate the law. We need to be thinking less in terms of what God did and more in terms of whether or not we are following those laws.

My hope is that I'm getting better and wiser. With every book, I have more of myself to pour onto the page.

The masculine DOES while the feminine IS. Major in the feminine, but minor in the masculine.

The spiritual journey has to do with learning to think more deeply and take as long a time as we need. That's the path to wisdom.
