“When we stand so staunchly in our self-righteousness that we can only see those who disagree with us as ignorant, stupid, or evil, we deprive both ourselves, and the other person, of the opportunity to realize why one of may be wrong. And when we deprive ourselves of the opportunity to realize why we are wrong, we deprive ourselves of the ability to realize what is right, and good, and true.” Eileen Workman (social media post)

“If it’s causing suffering, it it’s causing stress, if it’s getting between me and love, getting between me and peace or stillness, I’m going to question it. There’s a lie involved somewhere. My sense of integrity is calling me to examine it.” Martha Beck (DIY Integrity Cleanse Kit)

“The mystery of Christ is revealed, and the Christ “comes again,” whenever we are able to see the spiritual and the material coexisting, in any moment, in any event, and in any person.” Richard Rohr (The Cosmic Christ)

“Faith is a quality of seeing that will expand your vision, that will allow you to see in bigger circles and in bigger realms . . . and to know that at the center of it all is a good and gracious and benevolent God.” Fr. Richard Rohr (“Faith is Not Will- Power as much as Confidence” homily)

“Over a lifetime of practice, contemplation gradually helps you detach from who you think you are and rest in your authentic identity of Love. At first this may feel like an “identity transplant” until you learn how to rest in God permanently.” Fr. Richard Rohr (Nonviolence: The Inner Witness)
