“The habit of talking the talk has distracted many people from walking the walk.”― Edmond Mbiaka
Walking the Walk
It is easier to talk about matters of faith, religion, and spirituality than actually walking our faith out in daily life. We are surrounded by examples of this every day. But how we live will be remembered long after our words are forgotten.
As spiritual beings, we are called to live in this world but not to be of it, to not conform to the ways of the world. Yes, how we live matters. We are here on this earth to follow the way set before us by Spirit in love and truth.
Will it be easy? No. It never is. We will be ridiculed, excluded and possibly even threatened, but we keep on walking.
Please join us this month as we walk the walk.
Beautiful City

Tiny Ripples of Hope
“Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.” — Robert Kennedy

We Can Reorganize
