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.

Ushering in the Kingdom

“Hell is a matter of everyday life, like the Kingdom of God. The choice is yours.”
― Thich Nhat Hanh, You Are Here: Discovering the Magic of the Present Moment
_________________________________________________________________

It is our choice really
We can create hell on earth
Or we can work to usher in the Kingdom of God

We can hate, or love
We can be bitter, or forgive
We can shame the poor, or reach out to them in love

We can tear others down, or build them up
We can hoard or give

It is easy to stoke the fires of hell
But is it equally easy to draw the Kingdom of God into
This moment

It just depends on how we choose to live
