In our lives, ’tis a gift to be humble, but not a gift that many of us have.

“Peace is the only true direction of human progress."

As we share our feelings of dread and sadness in prayer, we ask God to lift us up to a place of gladness.

There are many people who have gone before us, both in our biological and spiritual families, who have quietly and obscurely served God, loved others, and increased the amount of good in the world.

We are afraid: afraid that our questioning will lead to spiritual cataclysm, that once the camel’s skeptical nose gets under the tent flap, the whole shabby edifice of our faith will collapse.
