I have spent my whole life around Christian people of one stripe or another. I was raised in the Nazarene church, then I became a Methodist, and now I am an Episcopalian. Because of the work that I have done, first as a religious music publisher and now as a writer of books about Christian spirituality, I have spend a fair amount of time with people from all across the spectrum of Christian theology, doctrine, and practice. . . . I have been a fellow pilgrim and seeker and traveling companion with one crowd or another of them for as long as I can remember.
Whichever window we are looking through, we have far more in common than we often think that we do. The things that keep Christians apart from other Christians are not nearly so important to me these days as are the things that bind us to one another. It is curious how we seem to talk so much about the former and pay so little attention to the latter.
