Free Will and the Divine Image


The love of God 
burns away all our delusions 
so that our wills may be truly free 
and we may become 
the divine image God 
created us to be.

The Passion of Man & the Disintegration of the World


The passion of the bird is to fly, and of the fish, to swim. In this way they honor the God who made them and what they were created to be. Likewise, the passion of man is to worship and adore in holy fellowship. But when the object of our worship is anything less than God, the world disintegrates.

The Revelation of Glory Requires No Evil


The manifestation of evil 
is not in any way necessary 
for the glory and goodness of God 
to be revealed.

Knowing the Story from the Inside


The story the Scriptures tell looks very different from the outside than it does from the inside, where we realize we are part of it. It is only from the inside that we begin to understand it as the story of the gospel, the story of Christ ~ and truly good news.

Freedom and Who We Really Are


Freedom is not the power to change who we really are 
but the grace to discover who you really are in God.

It Frees Our Wills


The love of God never forces our wills
... it frees our wills.
