Could Rastas and Christians Really Unite? | Christianity Today | A Magazine of Evangelical Conviction

Saturday, 9am
Could Rastas and Christians Really Unite? | Christianity Today | A Magazine of Evangelical Conviction

This article plus today's participation in the http://www.ralak.com/ festival in Mebane will hopefully inspire a reflection.

We will be exploring the Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

After a great afternoon of making new friends at RALAK on Saturday, here is my reflection.

Down by da tree
We gathered
in the shade
her spines like the long bows
sweeping and curving
make the circle
dense dripline
40 x 40
for the four of us and more
for our sitting

It is the willow tree
Give thanks for the willow tree

She says, come
and sit
stay and listen
hear the wind
feel the sun
listen to the welcome from the drum

Heart beatin'
Foot thumpin'
Land shakin'
