I’m still reading God in All Things! The book, as a whole, looks at what Hughes calls “Split Spirituality” which in very basic terms is about how we have managed to separate God and the things of God from those of everyday life. Last night I read the following:

Any spirituality that fails to develop an appreciation of the unity of all things and of all peoples, and that leaves us without any hunger or thirst for social justice, must inevitably prove to be a false spirituality. It will not be drawing us closer to the living God who hungers and thirsts after justice, as we read in the Hebrew prophets. It is a sign of the split in our spirituality that in too many churches, people who are active in justice/peace issues find themselves to be on the margins.”
Gerard W. Hughes, God in All Things p 172

No need for a commentary on this as it speaks for itself!
