Weekly Pause & Ponder

Cosmologists Brian Swimme and Thomas Berry have suggested that we are a culture that is presently in between stories (1992), between world views. Both science and spirituality have a stake in the story that is being created. Each alone has only partial answers to the questions of who we are and what we are capable of becoming. Indeed, as twenty-first century life unfolds, it is becoming increasingly clear that each of us has a voice in the answers to these questions. Through transformations in consciousness, each of us is empowered to help craft a new story–one that is more just, compassionate, and sustainable, now and for future generations.
