Michel de Certeau: …the Christian story begins on the ground level, with footsteps…intertwined paths give their space to spaces as they weave their places together.
The early Christians were known for what they did…practicing hospitality and forgiveness…
I like the image of “cutting edge traditional.”
There is a distinction between the life giving great tradition, says Huston Smith, that is the voice of peace, justice, and beauty emanating from the Christian soul, and the authoritative, exclusive traditionalism as practiced by some contemporary American Protestants.
Thoughts stirred and discovered by re-reading, “Christianity for the Rest of Us” by Dorothy Butler Bass
