Swing of Religion




"Some of the most exciting and fruitful theology today
is being described as the 'turn toward participation.'"
Richard Rohr

Exploring theology to become knowledgeable of varying belief systems is the first step. The second step is to take this gathered information and apply a belief system which deeply connects us to whom we label God.  The third step is the swing step, where we whirl our way back into a community to engage others in a sacred way.

Strengthening our belief system and actually putting it to use is the best possible action we can take.  We break the shell of original dogma and reclaim our oneness with the Divine, and it doesn't end there.  We share this oneness with all others through participation in supportive living.

The supply of loving kindness is for all of God's children.  It is to be used for all peoples no matter where they come from or what language they speak.  We are the caregivers of this earth and every creative aspect connected to it.  When we get the swing of it, we will participate with compassion in all of our thoughts, actions, and deeds.
