Quote for Reflection (Sunday, September 27, 2020)

“We are invited to go beyond the minds that we have to minds and hearts that are shaped by the Spirit of God. We are invited to go beyond the minds that we have — minds dominated and blinded by conventional categories, identities, and preoccupations — to minds and hearts centered in the Spirit, alive to wonder, alive to seeing and alive to compassion. We are invited to go beyond the minds that we have — minds dominated by the ideologies and preoccupations of individualism — to minds and hearts that see and hear the suffering caused by systemic injustice, to minds alive to God’s passion for justice.”
