“Shalom is meant to be both personal (emphasizing our relationships with others) and structural (replacing systems where shalom has been broken or which produce broken shalom, such as war-or greed-driven economic systems). In shalom, the old structures and systems are replaced with new structures and new systems.”

“Paul’s mission was profoundly shaped by the way God called him and invited him to reject his life of violence to take on the yoke of peace. Paul became the voice of God to the Gentiles and all those in the wider community who had no place in the inheritance of Israel. Paul began to proclaim that God's narrative of grace, begun with Abraham and Sarah, was meant for all people. Paul's conversion was actually the reconversion of the community of shalom. The community was reminded to be different from other religious communities, and different from the powers and authorities of the world. The community did not repay violence with violence, but practiced peace instead.”

“Hanukkah Sonnet Hanukkah, Oh Hanukkah, let's light the menorah, Let's wipe out all divide, even if some call it utopia. Come one, come all, no matter the culture, Let's stuff some latkes while we dreidel together. Worry not about the candles burning low, Fear not the darkness of hate and narrowness. So long as we stand as bridges and not walls, No darkness is match for our uplifting radiance. The light of the festival doesn't come from candles, The sweetness in the air doesn't come from treats. The light and sweetness of these joyful festivities, Rise from the loving streams of our heartbeats. Let us burn bright as the gentle epitome of ahava. Let us live life as a walking and talking menorah.”
