“A simple church is a congregation designed around a straightforward and strategic process that moves people through the stages of spiritual growth.”

Miroslav Volf

Gregory of Nyssa
“Moses’ vision of God began with light; afterwards God spoke to him in a cloud. But when Moses rose higher and became more perfect, he saw God in the darkness.”
Gregory of Nyssa, The Life of Moses

“So in a limited sense, the conversation partners were able to say that we are all worshiping the same God, but in terms of a general consensus that was as far as it could go, because “the image of God is too closely linked with the identity of each of the religions.” 167 Nevertheless, common ground was found along the way. Thus, after “a number of dialogues, John B. Taylor summed up the common features: common creatureliness before God, common responsibility before God’s judgment, the human being as God’s representative and servant, [and] the struggle for a more just, better world.” 168 To these could be added the mutual affirmation of humanity’s need for divine revelatory guidance as well as a belief in our God-given dignity and inherently moral nature. And both see Jesus as a holy man and prophet.”
Lewis E. Winkler, Contemporary Muslim and Christian Responses to Religious Plurality: Wolfhart Pannenberg in Dialogue with Abdulaziz Sachedina

William Law
“The Almighty brought forth all Nature for this only End, that boundless Love might have its Infinity of Height and Depth to dwell and work in, and all the striving and working Properties of Nature are only to give Essence and Substance, Life and Strength, to the invisible hidden Spirit of Love, that it may come forth into outward Activity and manifest its blessed Powers, that Creatures born in the Strength, and out of the Powers of Nature, might communicate the Spirit of Love and Goodness, give and receive mutual Delight and Joy to and from one another”
William Law, The Spirit of Love and The Spirit of Prayer
