Disclaimer: About This Blog

THIS BLOG IS: my personal journey of how I am rethinking some of my spiritual beliefs.
THIS BLOG IS NOT: intended to point fingers at people who I think are wrong.
I do not believe the final judgement will be based on how many correct answers we get on a theology exam. I believe many people throughout history have had genuine relationships with God, despite holding questionable beliefs and practices. I make no claim to having it all figured out or being your judge. If we end up disagreeing over these topics I pray we can find a way to demonstrate grace.

Err on the side of love

 


This quote from Brian Zahnd resonates with me these days.  I have been trying to live more this way lately.  Not just in the realms of theology either. 

It is within my nature to try to be right, and convince others that I am right.

When I prioritize being right over simply loving others, I am in the wrong... even when I am right.
