“read the story in the book of Genesis about Jacob waking up from a dream and saying, Surely God was in this place, and I, I wasn’t aware of it. Jacob is waking up from a dream, but he’s waking up in a larger sense as well, to the divine presence in all of life.”

“I saw how the Bible isn’t a book about how to get into heaven, it’s a library of poems and letters and stories about bringing heaven to earth now, about this world becoming more and more the place it should be. There is very, very little in the Bible about what happens when you die. That’s not what the writers were focused on. Their interest, again and again, is on how this world is arranged.”

“We’re here on earth, in these bodies, feeling the pull of gravity, knowing that we’re only here for a while. But then there are these moments— like brushes or glimpses— of love and connection and hope, and suddenly we’re here, and we’re everywhere. Our feet are on the ground, but we’re flying. Our hearts are still beating, but our souls are soaring.”
