Values 2

A few more values that have come to me (mostly while in the shower) over the last couple of days.


7. Journeying together. There's so many important allusions in this phrase. The idea of journey immediately says that we're not 'there'. Epistemic humility. A sense of movement. Journeying together implies mutuality and equality. It seems to speak of questioning together rather than telling someone else 'the answer' which I have (and have entirely correctly).


8. Following God in the Way of Jesus. This phrase which Emergent types seem to use highlights the Christian character of the Way, but also its praxis orientation. It also seems to leave open the possibility that others may (genuinely) be following God in other ways - a notion that I am quite comfortable with.
