Divine Love and Wisdom has been called the most profound work of the Enlightenment scientist and seer Emanuel Swedenborg. It demonstrates how God's love, wisdom, and humanity are reflected in creation and in ourselves, and suggests that the act of creation is not a mystery of the past, but a miracle ongoing in every instant of the present. Like a blueprint of things unseen, Divine Love and Wisdom makes visible the hidden design of the universe, as well as the qualities of its architect.

We are at another crossroads now and Universe is calling us to participate.

There is a question that every human civilization has asked independently, in its own language, through its own mythology and ritual and architecture. No culture discovered it from another. No migration carried it. It arose, separately, in every corner of the inhabited world.

O ataque terrorista cometido contra israelenses no dia 7 de outubro de 2023 entrou para a história como o pior ato de violência contra os judeus desde o Holocausto.

Como isso aconteceu? Por que tantos membros das elites educadas deram de ombros diante do pior pogrom antissemita em quase 80 anos? Por que “antifascistas” se aproximaram dos fascistas do Hamas?

How should the church relate to the world? Nearly everyone agrees that the church should be making this world better, but we keep clashing about how to do so. We all want God’s will to be done on earth as in heaven, but deep disagreements about how to get there keep fracturing Christ’s body and tainting our testimony. Jesus was right: our witness to the world depends on our unity and our love for one another. In recent years, we've been failing at both. Political partisanship and constant infighting have wounded the vulnerable and driven countless people from the pews.

What explains the existence of the world and our place in it? Is there a primal cause beyond our comprehension because our intelligence is part of the very world we seek to understand?

First, these insights offer a new, deeper understanding of our own nature.

The Protestant Reformation is often associated most closely with Martin Luther, and it’s often considered to have started when Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg on October 31, 1517. However, the Reformation cannot be reduced to a single, abrupt, and exceptional event, but must be traced to a much longer process of spiritual, social, and intellectual transformation that unfolded over the late medieval period.
