Stephen Finlan’s Sermons and book excerpts

Preaching the Gospel of Jesus, in Spirit and in Truth

Quote of the week:   “Our participation in the act . . . of continual realization of the world [means] acting jointly with the supra-individual spirit in genuinely cocreating and coproducing the essences coordinated with the eternal logos, eternal love, and eternal will.”    ​ 

      — Max Scheler, The Human Place in the Cosmos, 35
