“So herein lies the choice for those of us who are Christians. We can either stay within the Christianity we have mastered with the Jesus we have domesticated, or we can leave Christianity as a destination, embrace Christianity as a way of life, and then journey to reality, where God is present and living in every person, every human community, and all creation.” WayHumansPersonsRealityChristianLyingChoicesJesusCommunityChristianityJourneyCreationEmbraceDestination Book:It's Really All About God: How Islam, Atheism, and Judaism Made Me a Better Christian Source: It's Really All About God: How Islam, Atheism, and Judaism Made Me a Better Christian
“When I pray the Lord's Prayer, I begin with the first word, "Our. . ." (see Matthew 6:9) and I stop and ask myself, "Who do I include in this Our?" I remind myself that the story of God is bigger than my personal story, bigger than the story of my religion, bigger than the story of all humanity, and bigger than the story of all creation. In the kingdom of God, these four stories are all really my stories - all at the same time - woven together, giving meaning and life to each other.” GivingFirstsStoriesTogetherHumanityAsksPrayerLordFourCreationPrayingBiggerKingdomsKingdom Of GodI PrayWovenMatthewPersonal Stories Author:Samir Selmanovic
