I believe we can offer first aid to our neighbors without slinging AR15s on our shoulders. I believe we can be generous, sharing our abundance with our neighbors, and still have more than enough. I believe we can choose to forgo conveniences that harm the natural world in order preserve a better world for our children. I believe we can create spaces that honor every expression and representation of humanity rather than fortifying altars of homogenization.  I believe we can choose to collaborate rather than dominate, love rather than hate, build up rather than tear down, create rather than replicate. But most of all, I believe we can gather on our own Mount of Olives, in the presence of God and one another, and step out of the overwhelming shadow of Temple, and into the light, purpose, and possibilities of love. We can grasp God’s love. We can be God’s love.
