LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

Experiences in the Spirit are beautiful, valuable and can be extraordinarily transformative. However, they are like mountaintops, and we are tempted to stay there. Like the True Human, we are called to come down and walk our valleys and deserts, our via dolorosa, even as He did. We trust that our God does bring life from death, and we can accept the ‘death’ world of space, time and history we now live in, and even though it is perishing, we can care for those whom this world tosses out on burning garbage heaps. If, and when, we are gifted with a chance to see things from the mountain top, that is only to give us perspective, for looking out indicates that our life journey still lies before us, and the mountain top, is but a brief resting place…before we head back down to the real world of those and that which God loves dearly.
