Faith, Hope, & Love
Wednesday Self-Reflection
Do you find inspiration in these newsletters but don’t want to commit to a paid membership? Consider the option to…
Today, I invite you to spend some time in silent consideration. Imagine me sitting with you and asking the following questions. Allow the time to turn into an internal conversation with me. I think this works best as a journaling exercise.
What are “faith”, “hope”, and “love” to you? How do you see them related within the context of a relationship?
Think back to a movie you watched recently. Explore how these three were demonstrated. In the movie, what seemed like the most important one?
Continue thinking about that movie. What are the ways it portrayed fear? Now, how did faith, hope, and love relate to the various depictions of fear?

Support the Cause
My mission is to promote the progressive Christian voice in the spiritual/theological marketplace. I hope that by doing so I will help make the world a more loving place one newsletter at a time.
If you are not already a paying subscriber, I encourage you to consider it. It takes many (many) hours each week to create all the content for this project, and by becoming a paid subscriber you support the greater mission through me.
Will you consider becoming a financial supporter of the mission for only $6 per month? If so, I would greatly appreciate it.
The movies I like best are the ones where all three of these are tangled up together, indistinguishable from one another. I thought first of that buddy road trip into wine country film, with Paul Giamatti; then that made me think of his most recent film, at the boarding school. What made both of them so good was the oh-so-subtle blend of begrudging love and wistful hope. Not so much faith as religion, but somehow the bare humanity in both films is in the same wheelhouse of meaning as faith.
