Reflection for the Week- June 22nd 2009

There is a lamentable lack of focus today on reading the biblical text. Bibles proliferate, but go unread. One of the most significant things that Christians want to attempt to do is engage and be engaged by the biblical text. In a very basic, yet profound way we want to learn more about being open to God’s word, so that it can read us. Being read will help us turn away from selfish tendencies and towards the living God, creation, and each other.
