Touchpoints on Acts
Paul vs. the Pimps
“It makes me wonder, as I look at my life, how often I may have prostituted my gifts. How have I debased my talents, with egoistic intent, unworthy of the good news that saved me from the exploitation of others?”
Immersed in Life
“As I stared out and watched this living metaphor, I thought about how in my suffering, Spirit was no longer separate or dormant in my life. It did not reside in my practices, and it need not be conjured up emotionally. It is ever present and stirred by my conscious awareness of its silent, life-giving power. It fascinates me that we are more comfortable talking about the force in Star Wars than the third person of the Trinity in all its power.”
