Families and communities grow best into a profound generosity of spirit when wisdom is lovingly and open-handedly shared and received by all.

Are we advocates, speaking up for the equal rights and treatment of others, or do we preserve our comfort to avoid awkwardness, in the name of politeness?

“No one gets to heaven without a reference from the poor.”

If we must go through this crisis, we ought not to waste the possibilities it presents.

We are in the midst of turbulent and unpredictable times. It is uncharted territory. How do we act? What do we believe?

Our blessings are never intended for ourselves alone.
