This is an open-comment theology blog where I will post various theological musings, mostly in sermon or essay form, for others to read and comment on. If what I say here interests you, you may want to check out some of my books. Feel free to criticize, to critique, to comment, but keep comments to the point and respectful. Many of these posts have been published elsewhere, but I wanted them collected and made available to a wider audience.

My Mystical Approach
I try to let my mind and imagination grow to the size of the universe, and then focus it all down to one single point in space and time, one single human being: Jesus Christ. In this way I keep myself open to the limitless possibilities of spirituality, preventing a calcification of my life into some restricted religious practice. And I also keep myself from flights of fancy that may lead me into pride and thus the realm of the evil one. The Holy Spirit without The Son becomes idolatrous. The Son without the Spirit becomes cold and sterile. And either without the Father become meaningless.

Growing with God as opposed to building walls to keep you away from further possiblities.
