You are free to love without an agenda

Nothing in life is ritual.

Once you have hierarchy you need rules to protect and administer it, and then you need law and the enforcement of the rules, and you end up with some kind of chain of command or system of order that destroys relationship rather than promotes it. Hierarchy imposes laws and rules and you end up missing the wonder of relationship that we intended for you.

It is remarkable how a seemingly insignificant action or event can change entire lives.

Love is not the limitation; love is the flying.

So many believe that it is love that grows, but it is the knowing that grows and love simply expands to contain it.

I think my books give people a language to have a conversation about God that's not religious. There isn't enough new literature that brings the conversation of God into a modern context. I love the Bible, but in the West we've analyzed it until it fits into a structure of control. We need more new stories. We need different ways of looking at things, and I think it's coming.
