Greetings friends, I just published a new blog post (excerpt and link below). You may remember it from a few AfterParty’s ago. I got such good feedback on it that I wanted to share it with our wider audience on the blog. Feel free to read it again or pass it along to someone who might find it helpful!
Much love,

“But what I most appreciate about Barbara is her story as told in Holy Envy. I’ve read all of her books, they are all on a shelf right behind me. But Holy Envy was something extra special as she talks about the religions of the world and how although she always “comes home to Jesus at night”, she loves to explore and appreciate the different aspects of the different religions of the world.
Judaism.
Buddhism.
Hinduism.
Etc.
Etc.
Etc.
Richard Rohr once said that if God is a stream flowing through the wilderness, the religions of the world are like cups filled with water from that stream.
I hold the cup of Christianity and I’ve filled my cup by dipping it into the stream.
Maybe you hold the cup of Buddhism and you, too, have filled your cup by dipping it into the stream.
Hindus dip their cup into the stream.
Jews dip their cup.
… And so on and so forth. We’ve all dipped our cup into the stream. BUT. How ridiculous would it be if I turned and said to you or to everyone at the stream, “Behold! See my cup? I have the water - the only source of water! - that can quench the thirst of the world! You must drink from my cup or you will thirst forever.”
That would be insane, right?”
