“…thinking about this Pentecost, I realized that trying to create and control the experience contradicted the vary nature of Pentecostal truth. If it happens, it happens. If it happens, it’s because we open ourselves to the mysteries of the power of love at work in the cosmos, in our lives and relationships, in the affairs of this world. If it happens, the signs will be the creation of an inclusive community committed to seeking the truth in peace and justice, as God continues to pour out Her Spirit. May it be so.”

“These are the voices of the young people: on the one hand, not quite sure that there will be any HERE here for them by the time they reach full adulthood, and on the other hand, determined to act for the common good so that there will be a stable world for all. I am filled with a spirit of gratitude for their determination to write a new ending to the story, for their willingness to be in the struggle although the outcome is uncertain. And this is where I believe God is calling us, to be part of writing that new ending to the story."

“We are each and everyone of us called to be witnesses. For many of us, that’s an uncomfortable call… We are not called to convert or convince anyone. We don’t need to be experts or authorities or academics. We don’t need to have all the answers or perfection. We aren’t meant to argue anyone into submission. What we are asked to offer is our own experiences. It takes honesty and the courage to be vulnerable. Armed with those, we can witness to the hope of life and new life, witness to our belief and our experience that love is stronger than death, witness to the belief that the arc of the moral universe is long and that we all have a part in bending it toward justice."
