every time God forgives us, God is saying that God's own rules do not matter as much as the relationship that God wants to create with us.
Richard RohrWhen you get your,'Who am I?', question right, all of your,'What should I do?' questions tend to take care of themselves
Richard RohrThe recurring theme of all religions is a sympathy, empathy, connection, capacity between the human and the divine - that we were made for union with one another. They might express this through different rituals, doctrines, dogmas, or beliefs, but at the higher levels they're talking about the same goal. And the goal is always union with the divine.
