Yowza! This is so point by point, brilliant metaphor by brilliant metaphor, so exactly spot on TRUTH! I could share my own journey which would sound a little like yours and also completely different and yet thanks to much reading and listening, longing and seeking, confessing and convicting, loving and begging, grace and grace and grace and trying to act on Kingdom, Upside Down beliefs, I have begun to grow in little minute ways, into a new idea of the reality of God, Christ, the Planet, and the Cosmos that you seem to be pointing to, even as you point away from the destructive lies and cheap grace we’ve been sold for so long. Thank you for honesty and great theology. I look forward to reading the other Parts. Shalom, Jane
