One Thing That's Clear In

Liturgy And Worship Were Never Meant To Be Confined To The Cathedrals And Sanctuaries. Liturgy At Its Best Can Be Performed Like A Circus Or Theater - Making The Gospel Visible As A Witness To The World Around Us.

We Might Hope To Change The World Through Better, Bigger Programs To Stop Global Warming, But Global Warming Will Not End Unless People Become Less Greedy And Less Wasteful, Gaining A Fresh Vision Of What It Means To Love Our Global Neighbor.

It Is A Beautiful Thing When Folks In Poverty Are No Longer Just A Missions Project But Become Genuine Friends And Family With Whom We Laugh, Cry, Dream And Struggle.

I Had Come To See That The Great Tragedy In The Church Is Not That Rich Christians Do Not Care About The Poor But That Rich Christians Do Not Know The Poor...i Truly Believe That When The Rich Meet The Poor, Riches Will Have No Meaning. And When The Rich Meet The Poor, We Will See Poverty Come To An End.

Most Of The Ugliness In The Human Narrative Comes From A Distorted Quest To Possess Beauty. Coveting Begins With Appreciating Blessings: Murder Begins With A Hunger For Justice. Lust Begins With A Recognition Of Beauty. Gluttony Begins When Our Enjoyment Of The Delectable Gifts Of God Starts To Consume Us. Idolatry Begins When Our Seeing A Reflection Of God In Something Beautiful Leads To Our Thinking That The Beautiful Image Bearer Is Worthy Of Worship.
