the expatriate minister

a pilgrim's lifestream

Immersed in the world

"I'm going to speak to you simply as a pastor, as one who, together with his people, has been learning the beautiful but harsh truth that the Christian faith does not cut us off from the world but immerses us in it; the church is not a fortress set apart from the city. The church follows Jesus, who lived, worked, struggled, and died in the midst of a city, in the polis."

- Archbishop Oscar Romero

Birthing Images #ftemin

You must give birth to your images.

They are the future waiting to be born.

Fear not the strangeness you feel.

The future must enter you

long before it happens.

Just wait for the birth,

For the hour of new clarity.

 

-Rainer Maria Rilke
