Dear Folks -
It was a wonderful, to me, bit of synchronicity or experience of “divine entanglement,” that the text from the Gospel of Thomas that was up for this week contains what I believe is the essence of the teaching of Jesus. It is among the longest passages in Thomas and is a parable. I would wager that almost everyone is familiar with the parable. Certainly this is true if anyone has any familiarity with the “Jesus narrative.” In a time where there is both so much religious ignorance and so much violence done in the name of religion heeding the advice in this parable is crucial. The title I gave to the talk is
The Insistent, Irresistible, Invincible Invitation
The audio version is not only different than the written text but also has additional content. You’ll find the text of the talk, the presentation slides and audio version using the links below.
Be well and much love,
