As humans, we look for something that can help us feel like we have control, or at least some one or some thing is in control. But what if God isn’t here to support or save us? What if God is simply to be within us? What if a divine connection between all that exists is all there is? Nothing with control or power over, but a divine potential that is ours to be immersed within? Life lived in the paradox of our humanity and our divinity may mean that we do not have distinct answers nor the comfort and security of a definable path for our lives. We have to be able to hold the paradox, whether in ease or in discomfort, joy or sorrow, or anything in between. We must do both ~ embrace our human condition and surrender to the sacredness within it. Can we? Can we walk the road where our humanity meets our divinity? Within these pages, Melissa Rose Harris encounters this challenging idea, creating an open dialogue around what it means to be human and holy, and guides readers through ways to embrace it. Follow her journey, her struggles and triumphs, some of which may mirror your own, in Where Our Humanity Meets Our Divinity. "In these challenging times, it is important to connect with others.
