Our Sacred Space on Sunday night reflected on the formative influences of our understanding of truth, which we all agreed were dominated by the rational, with a small influence of various authorities (parents, tradition, etc.) As we reflected on "being children of light" we realised that one light does not reveal everything. Certain realities are only revealed under blue light, red light, x-rays, and ultra-violet light just to name a few. But we had shone one, maybe two lights on our faith, and lived in the light of that for some time. So what had we lost?
We created a list of things we needed to recover, both in worship, and in our own journey of discipleship. Here are some:
* Intuition
* Mystery
* Imagination
* Questions without answers
* Play
* Creativity
It was recognised that this was not a case of either/or, but of the need to create space for these in our worship and community life together.
Anything you would add to the list?
