Considering How To Be Centered On That of God
“Extremism is a centrifugal force. It constantly seeks to draw what is in the center out toward the edges. It pulls societies, communities, apart. It divides through the pressure of fear. It seduces through suspicion.
Love is a gravitational force. It holds the center together.
Even in the fast spin of change and diversity, it keeps community possible.
It unifies opposites. It works through shared respect.
The physics of faith is at work around us each day.
We can be pulled to the edges or we can hold the center.”
