'Team' term has been in play lately. So mb auto suggest was right on? 😀
I stated b4. My intentions are not to evangelize, proselytize, coerce, brainwash, indoctrinate any according to the Faith I hold and attempt to practice. These are nowhere in my 'job description', if you will.
My 'charge' is to be salt and light, to the best of my ability. To 'share' (I do not care for that word, having been run into the ground) as best I am able that which I know and love about my Faith if asked or in response in a group such as this.
Scripture says not to keep your light under a bushel basket. What good comes of that.
I do have an aversion to any tradition of faith being shoved down throats.
And trust me saying: I am still far, far away from attaining His Image.
His Likeness is bestowed on all humans. His Image attained through theosis.
Eastern Orthodoxy holds this: "We know where the Church is, but we do not know where the Church is not." It's spiritually dangerous to be presumptive in that.
