How Compassion Centers Our Minds & Faiths | What is the Word? Swedenborg’s Book ”Faith” Continued

Alyssa and Cory dive into how compassion opens and grounds our healthy thinking and approaches to faith (no matter our religion) in this episode of "What is the Word?". Continuing our exploration of Emanuel Swedenborg's book "Faith" (free to download), they explore the meaning of a faith rooted in care, how God uplifts people in all traditions and religions, Jesus' death on the cross, and how God is the source of all of our lives, goodness, and salvation from our self-made hells.

Our community's affirming Swedenborgian spirituality, inspired by an interfaith, mystical Christianity, is centered on love and openness. It has deeply influenced the likes of Helen Keller, Carl Jung, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Johnny Appleseed (John Chapman), William Blake, Henry James, Robert Frost, DT Suzuki, and others.
