@CTmagazine @jeff_bilbro 10/ The point is not creation instead of scripture, but their reconciliation in incarnation itself. The biblical narrative and the earth narrative illuminate one another because Jesus bound both into a single reconciliatory movement, the same redemptive unfolding, within history.

@Plough For prophetic earthworkers, food, farming, eating, and ecological-relations aren’t merely ethical or practical matters—they constitute the crucible where Truth is discerned, inhabited and generatively realized in an immanent covenantal dynamism transfiguring all created reality.

15/ We are in the world, not above it. Raising food forces participation into the open. Seeds don’t negotiate; soil doesn’t flatter; rain comes or it doesn’t. Ecological agriculture is where work either aligns with creation’s grain or it doesn’t—and where we meet answerability.

Food is where modernity's broken metaphysic becomes concrete, measurable, edible. If we heal how a people grow, share, and honor food, we're not doing a side project; we're tending to the taproot of collective life, the foundation beneath the foundation.

4/ The web of life is a food web. As such, the reinhabitory foodshed movement defines the leading edge of a planetary reconciliation in which faithful aspiration toward personal, corporate, earthly and cosmic harmony coalesces in a simultaneity of human and earthly resurrection.

Quoted byRT @nick_routledge: @commentmag 2/ "Heaven and earth in biblical cosmology are not two different locations within the same continuum of space or matter...They are the twin interlocking spheres of God's single created reality...designed for a symbiotic relationship within an ongoing purpose." @profntwrightQuoted by@commentmag 2/ "Heaven and earth in biblical cosmology are not two different locations within the same continuum of space or matter...They are the twin interlocking spheres of God's single created reality...designed for a symbiotic relationship within an ongoing purpose." @profntwrightQuoted by@seenunseenmag @profntwright 12/ Garden, body, watershed, compost, seed, womb, feast: these are not ornaments to temple masonry. They name creation’s aliveness—the conditions in which the gospel becomes truthful, or remains pious abstraction. New creation must be grown, eaten, breathed, tended, and shared.
