the God of love

"The confessing church of American ragamuffins needs to join Magdalene and Peter in witnessing that Christianity is not primarily a moral code but a grace-laden mystery; it is not essentially a philosophy of love but a love affair; it is not keeping rules with clenched fists but receiving a gift with open hands."
Brennan Manning The Ragamuffin Gospel

The love of God is so big. it is nonsensical, non-conditional, and never ending. we will never understand it, but even just the small part we can grasp,
changes everything.
