About this blog (and the name of it in particular): in New Church (AKA Swedenborgian) theology, good and truth (or love and wisdom) are the essence of God, and everything in the universe has its origin in good and truth. That gives this blog a pretty wide range, since everything in the universe falls under the umbrella of its title. Mostly, it contains Coleman’s scattered thoughts on theology, pastoring, culture, and bits and pieces of his own life.
