Dear Folks -

 

One of the pieces of advice that Jesus gave was, "Give to anyone who begs from you." We are trained, because of our Western and materialistic culture, to hear these words as having something to do with money. Jesus was clear, as is every religious tradition, that acts of charity are essential. But, this saying is about something much more and deeper than that. It is about our developing the willingness and ability to live what I am calling "the disarmed life."

 

That is a brief summary of the "life talk" I offered in Ordinary Life this week. The full text I spoke from is below. As is sometimes the case, the audio version has some significant additions to the text below. You can find the audio as as the presentation slides using the links below.

 

Much love,

 

Bill Kerley
