Welcome

Primitive religion is not believed, it is danced!

Arthur Darby Nock

Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
And only he who sees takes off his shoes;
The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.

So let's dance


“I liked those ladies! They were helpers, and they danced.' These are the words I want on my gravestone: that I was a helper, and that I danced.”
― Anne Lamott, Grace (Eventually): Thoughts on Faith

Being fulfilled and significant
living out our divine inheritance
as Sacred children
may be much simpler
than we make it

we think of grand accomplishments
important jobs
books published
large churches
growing businesses
sacrifices
trips into strange and terrifying places

when really life is about two things
being there for others, serving
in practical, visible ways

putting flesh on the Sacred

and doing it with joy

so let's dance
