Lockdown Thought — Day 44 now at Level 3

At their best our Faith traditions animate our lives, and integrate their various parts. They can encourage us to examine what they teach with open minds and hearts. They can emphasise our interconnecting relationships in creation and challenge us to participate effectively for the common good of all in Earth. Faith flavours the way we participate with God in mission. It strengthens us with hope at this time of pandemic.
