It seems we are suffering from a very narrow and self serving reading of the Gospel right now.

Religions should be understood as only the fingers that point to the moon, not the moon itself.

As to his gospel, Jesus Christ came into the world as the image of the invisible God to communicate to us that not only did we not need to be afraid of God, but that God is more for us than we are ourselves or one another. God's love is infinite, and unstoppable, and will win!

The great and merciful surprise is that we come to God, not by doing it right, but by doing it wrong.

Denial of our pattern of failure seems to be a kind of practical atheism or chosen ignorance among many believers and clergy.

There is Someone dancing with you, and you are not afraid of making mistakes.

Nature is the one song of praise that never stops singing.
