if we believe we are part of a great tapestry that God is weaving, then every moment we choose to intentionally live vulnerably, exposing our shame in the context of safe, healing communities, we, with God’s help, place one more stone in building the kingdom of God, which is both now and not yet. In the process we tell the great story of hope, trust and joy, despite the hard work that is necessary to bring a great drama to its climax.
