The renewal of both the Church and Society will come through the re-emergence of forms of Christian community that are homes of generous hospitality, places of challenging reconciliation and centres of attentiveness to the living God
Brother Samuel SSF

Rather than ignore sin, the way through is to embrace the fact that we all have fallen short, we are all sinners. By owning deeply our vulnerability to error we can embrace the deep humility that results. It is only with this frame of mind that we have open hands.

The community of God… will be a community that does not live for itself but is deeply involved in the concerns of its neighborhood. It will be the church for the specific place where it lives, not the church for those who wish to be members of it – or, rather, it will be for them insofar as they are willing to be for the wider community.

Abram is called by God to leave house and home and all that is familiar, to undertake a very risky journey… And when we look at the various experiences they have along the way, stories that have shaped all subsequent faith we see that they are not safe bedtime stories. Rather they call us to a dangerous form of faithfulness that echoes the faithfulness of Abraham.
Alan Hirsch

The perfect pilgrimage involved an inner as well as an outer change. By leaving the religious settlement and home country, the ascetic also left his or her ‘place in the world’, that is status. Beyond the normal boundaries of religious and social life there was no recognised position and therefore no protection.

We are used to seeing some respond with despair and grief, and others with assimilation to the dominant values. What is much more disturbing to us is the example of a god who does neither, but instead answers with a fresh, imaginative theological response. Jesus neither slides into compromise and sinfulness, nor fulfils our expectations of the holier-than-thou guru. there is no more dangerous path than the one trodden by Jesus.

God didn't reveal a systematic theology but a storied narrative, and no language is capable of capturing the Absolute Truth who alone is God. Frankly, the emerging movement loves ideas and theology. We believe the Great Tradition offers various ways for telling the truth about God's redemption in Christ, but we don't believe any one theology gets it absolutely right.

Hospitality involves tolerance because it requires accepting in the other what we may not
understand or agree with.Ann Morisy
![Page 18: An emerging : missional : new- monastic community ? mark berry](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052702/56649c995503460f94955e7c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Hospitality can be, and very frequently is Sacrificial. Caring for the stranger can require us to think ‘outside the box’ or deliberately extend ourselves beyond our normal limits in order to understand how to be present to someone.

Worship, which leaps wet and wild from the bog of captivated hearts; which stretches convention until it rips and allows God in; which draws words and symbols from the raw experience of participants and flings them to God in love and desperation.

Here is a gift of true worth: divine presence. Amid the white noise of a world surfing the airwaves; amid the narrow casts, broadcasts and podcasts; caught in the radio signals, mobile downloads and webcasts; up with the static and the crackle of interference… one simple signal still pulses from ages past, like a heartbeat.

The rhythm of this incarnate life, the ebbs and flows, the twists and turns, the darkness and the light is the rhythm of Celtic prayer. It transforms our vision, stirs us to praise, and sets us out on the journey.

The work of poetic imagination holds the potential of unleashing a community of power and action that will finally not be contained by any imperial restrictions and definitions of reality.

The general meaning is of completion and fulfillment—of entering into a state of wholeness and unity, a restored relationship. ...Shalom, and its related words are among the most important theological words, the root meaning of the verb shalem better expresses the true concept of shalom - completeness, wholeness, harmony, fulfillment, are closer to the meaning. Implicit in shalom is the idea of unimpaired relationships with others and fulfillment in one's undertakings, shalom describes the state of fulfillment which is the result of God's presence
