“I believe that appreciation is a holy thing.

That when we look for what’s best in a person we happen to be with at the moment, we’re doing what God does all the time. So, in loving and appreciating our neighbor, we’re participating in something sacred.”

For it is when we transform tendencies of rejections into practices of embracing and loving others, that our religious creeds and traditions find their meaning in the old story that is told anew, the story of our friend,

Jesus the Christ who embraces ALL.
