"This Exodus invitation... is not about journeying perfectly, as we'll see. It's about journeying honestly. An honest look at ourselves reveals that our hearts are addicted to managing our pain and sin rather than really acknowledging and embracing them. We cope rather than surrender. It takes the dark valleys of the wilderness to fully learn to live with spiritual courage and authenticity." - Chuck DeGroat, Leaving Egypt
God's Enslaved People - Rev. Chris Currie | 9.3.23
"We tell ourselves stories in order to live." - Joan Didion
Jesus & Peter vs. the Gates of Hell - Rev. Chris Currie | 8.27.23
With Christ as our true teacher, we are called to a lifelong journey of joint inquiry in which we seek to embody Scripture wisely and faithfully in Christian community. After all, even as we apprentice ourselves to Christ and to saintly exemplars before and around us, we are simultaneously called to live in such a way that others will want to apprentice themselves to us. - L. Gregory Jones, "Embodying Scripture in the Community of Faith"
