There Is Real Value In These Local Congregations. For Me, A Lot Of It Is The Value Of The Sacraments We Share. In Neighborhoods Like Ours, The Churches Provide Stability.

We Do Need To Be Born Again, Since Jesus Said That To A Guy Named Nicodemus. But If You Tell Me I Have To Be Born Again To Enter The Kingdom Of God, I Can Tell You That You Have To Sell Everything You Have And Give It To The Poor, Because Jesus Said That To One Guy, Too. But I Guess That's Why God Invented Highlighers, So We Can Highlight The Parts We Like And Ignore The Rest.

[people] Need To Find Words That Can Reconnect Them With Each Other. That Is The Gift Of Good Liturgy, Yeah. We're Not Talking About Fluffy Stuff. We're Talking About Real Life For People Around The World. Our Prayers Should Be Said Like The Daily Breath That Gives Us Life.

When We Were Starting Our Community A Bunch Of Older Benedictine Nuns Said To Us, "if You Have Any Questions Or Want To Pick Our Brains, Please Do - We've Been Doing Community For About 1,500 Years Together So We've Learned A Few Things."

Jesus Still Has A Really Great Reputation And The Spirit Is Still Moving. I've Got A Lot Of Hope For A Generation That Takes Jesus Seriously, Once Again.
