Openness

Openness is the most fundamental stance for humanity.  Openness is not simply or even essentially about new ideas.  It is holistic in nature, encompassing the totality of our human processing of the world, involving both mind and spirit. Without openness, even the spirit of love mournfully cannot enter.

Openness is why we worship.  Worship is a platform - in its various forms - that helps open us to God, to life.  Openness is life’s great Mystery, essential for the true shalom of all.
