Simplify. Simplify. Part 2

from Ronnie McBrayer Hosted by ronniemcbrayer

This is Part 2 of Ronnie's latest series of talks entitled: "Simplify. Simplify." Ronnie takes on faith, church, and all the accoutrements that keep us from simplifying our spirituality. Turning to the Great Commandment in Mark 12, Ronnie says, "Love is the solution for calcified, legalistic, short-sighted, institutionally-obsessed religion. Love is the cure for the compartmentalization of our faith - where we can choose greed, or xenophobia, or racism, or rank nationalism over decency, compassion, and justice. Love is the counterbalance to how we like to exclude others. Love is the way to reverse our corporate failures to find consensus in the face of our most pressing challenges, and the way to craft solutions for the common good. Love is the rebuke to we strict religionists who would rather be pious than gracious or kind."
