Wisdom and Love – Christine Valters Paintner

“Wisdom and love help us to discern between what is life-giving and what is destructive and call us to infuse our ethical and moral living with the vision of divine love and beauty, to know these actions in the world not as dry and rote ways of being good for the sake of avoiding punishment, but ways of cooperating with wisdom and love to bring life more fully to the earth and to our communities.”
