Too often the Christian journey is understood simply in terms of becoming like God. While this is an essential component, if we only emphasize this aspect of it, we are likely to develop a spirituality that deemphasizes our humanity.

Even my favorite pieces speak to me differently with each reading. I would love to post his whole book,Continue reading "Kahlil Gibran on Reason and Passion"
Playing for Change – Stand By Me
This video brought tears to my eyes and clutched quite a few from my heart as well.
