"We know that we cannot claim true wellness for our nation as long as other nations are suffering. This emerging awareness can be described as a new Pentecost on a vast and unprecedented scale. How will we serve it?" #JohnPhilipNewell @UniteThePoor @BRepairers @RevDrBarber

Quoted by@CACRadicalGrace @RichardRohrOFM 4/ Jesus comes to “slay enmity for ever—enmity, but not his enemies.” The enemy? The apostasy of a marred ‘imago dei’, holding us captive from the life-renewing and creative character He emphasized over and against the doomsday images prevailing in short-sighted Xian culture.Quoted by@stewartdantec 1/ Right on. We need to and can, go further. What theologians with @unitethepoor have declared as the Easter of a #ThirdReconstruction, and the resurrective ontology of #PlanetaryPentecost, are one. The God-force, integral, incarnate, a mighty fine ally.
