RT @nick_routledge: @TheBruderhof This is why Jesus can say, “My yoke is easy, my burden light.” Not solitary heroics, but yielding to reality's grain—Spirit's resurrection power (Rom 8:11; 1 Cor 15:10) working through creation’s own substance and history's momentum, yoked together in harmony, incarnate in us.

Tweet: From within the Event—not about it—thesis yields to participation. The Word is eaten, not essayed. The distance between theory and Kingdom is a mouthful of bread—the Logos situated. Not a one-time descent but the current we inhabit. We share life, and history’s arc ruptures open. Perhaps "the unthinkable density of truth of the word of the Cross" (Barnhart) eludes sapiential conception because it's revealed complete only in the transcendence of immanence itself radically activated. 'Follow me' means 'Enflesh!' 'Eat this!' Only the Kingdom is Christ alive. I find him long on complaint and short on answers. Elsewhere, the 'deep incarnation' or 'realocalization' movement functionally constitutes a _reinhabitory_ relationship with the Real. Co-intelligently designed as 'home-field advantage', it fits. Home is where we live, after all. Quote tweet: · 2/ The blaze of the messianic is not a one-time descent, nor yet another horizon to await. It is rupture now: a hallowing hovering not above the world but entering it, not from outside or ahead but from within and through. It is a living arrival, an event enmeshed with becoming. Incarnational theology? A half-way house. What remains is to co-create the New World. Moltmann: "The reconciliation of the world is the promise of the new creation of all things, and the new creation is the fulfillment of the reconciliation of the world." ⅙ 2/ Where the co-evolutionary singularity of a unifying harmony, reconciliation and salvation arises from as much as comes to ground, we come home to the concrete reality of earthly and human solidarity only in so far as we and the world complete one another. 3/ In coming into accord with Belonging itself, we come to fidelity not with an isolated subjectivity, but with the same governing principle of harmony, integrity, synchronicity, ultimate participation and deep vitality which moves and contains the seasons, tides and planets. 4/ Yes, root and branch are in conjoined interplay in a single helix of presence. So then, if Creation and Incarnation ultimately exist as a dynamic Intelligence, how might a corporeal matrix of encounter and experience resurrect our world and us, in the same place and breath?
Open original document@CTmagazine 9/ We mistake the Event for a finale when it's actually reality reaching critical mass—truth intensifying to the point where pretense collapses, and the Real breaks through embodied fidelity to life's deepest currents. Not ending but integration: incarnation actualized.

Integral peacemaking surely amounts to one of the more germane if overlooked discoveries of recent times. Peace is truly a property, growing from and blending with the land, emerging through the genius and power of a co-evolutionary partnership far transcending human limitations. t.co/bVyMvytvK6

Intensifying biodiversity restores, renews and reinvigorates health, resilience and the deeper, eco-social integrity and unity upon which life depends.
