This is one of the most amazing stories I’ve ever heard. Given my post-modern and intellectual approach to religion, it is easy for me to see God in academic terms: as though knowing God is dependent upon intellectual analysis, like He is one of the realities revealed within a mathematical proof. It’s an easy trap, which I’m consciously aware of yet subconsciously fall into time and time again.

I have just encountered a story which made me realize just how judgmental I was. While I am thankful for the experience, it is a shame that I was so struck by the beauty and spiritual sincerity of the people in Krista Tippet’s “Speaking of Faith” program on the L’Arche community. There is a beautiful faith and a wonderful face of God revealed there.
