"Too often in the past our approach to truth has been to assume that we have it and others do not. Consequently, we have thought that our role is to tell people what to believe. We are being invited instead into a new humility, to serve the holy wisdom that is ALREADY stirring in the hearts of people everywhere, the growing awareness of earth's interrelatedness and sacredness. An essential feature of rebirthing within the Christian household will be to remember that the well of truth is not ours. It is deep within the earth and deep within the heart of humanity. Our role is to be a servant of that well."
