... God... ?

on the Big Bigness interconnecting all things
... God... ?
(image of light reflecting under water)

Life is a Sacred Text takes a bird’s-eye view of what religion, faith, and spirituality are all about.

We start less with the assumption that we can know the Unknowable than that curiosity is a core spiritual value, and that, as RDR writes in the point of it all, “we serve the Holy when we care for each other.

No matter your spiritual inclination (or lack thereof), there may be some doors and windows here for you as we jam on questions like the nature of suffering and what an adult faith demands, as well as the implications of our interconnectedness, the Big Bigness, and, you know, love.

Is there someone else you know who's been waiting for the grownup conversation like this?
