The language of the radical middle is paradoxical at best. We are essentially taking a position against extremism.

But in the process we create a new normal of embracing what appears to be contradictory.

It is about being ‘IN-TENSIONAL’

The notion that we can be intentional about the constant state of TENSION caused by embracing two opposing positions.

The way I do it is to view the position as a point of reference. In other words I am embracing the language of journey.

I am therefore, constantly moving. flowing, engaging, adjusting, embracing, challenging or questioning any position.

I am moving away while journeying toward, but accepting that to arrive is to have a position.

So we break bonds while binding hearts. We accept people while rejecting sin.

We battle the enemy in a war that is won while doing the work of a job already done.

We say yes and amen, AND no to the world for we’re ALSO His sons, But not yet Home.
