“The way of Jesus cannot be imposed or mapped — it requires an active participation in following Jesus as he leads us through sometimes strange and unfamiliar territory, in circumstances that become clear only in the hesitations and questionings, in the pauses and reflections where we engage in prayerful conversation with one another and with him.”

“IN MY LATE BROTHER'S book, Heaven Inc., he wrote that the only resource on which God placed no limit is love. Thus, we are able to do as the theologian John Shelby Spong suggests and “love wastefully,” because if there is no limit on love, it cannot be wasted.   Can you be so trusting of others that you can love wastefully? If so, be grateful today for that gift.”
