Day 39: Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone." "God has told you, O mortal, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?
I'm thinking about these passages from Luke and Micah today after spending time with neighbors of other faiths. Jesus is my tradition, but I'm so convinced that there is something bigger. What's the Christian opposite of an evangelical? -

Day 36: God is truth. Sure, and with a capital T. But God is in all the small t truths as well - the heart-to-heart contact with someone who listens or trusts you to truly hear them, the beauty of the ordinary places and spaces you live in each day, and in the surprises and insights that come from opening your heart to new voices, spaces, and places. Truth abounds. -

Day 35: It's such a utilitarian word, generally meant to describe your t-shirt or your soda order. But by itself, without context, how large is large? What's the biggest large you can think of? Can you imagine that there's something even larger than that? Even larger than *that* then, that's what I imagine God to be, even while God is at the same time in every atom of every thing. Inconceivable? Exactly. -

Day 34: God is strong. Strength, perseverance, constancy, faithfulness - these calls to live into Godliness are everywhere: at the march to keep families together, at the rally to end the glorification of the Confederacy, at the Montgomery Legacy Museum and Lynching Memorial. At each of these places, I've seen God in the passion and truth of the people there. It's been a powerful week of witness, calling for and upon that holy strength. -
