Freedom

"'God is a God who is committed to our development. He is committed to journeying and isn’t afraid where that might take us... That when Jesus talks about freedom, he is talking about a God who believes we are capable to live out of that very freedom. This is an empowering God who encourages us and pushes us beyond the ‘Gardens’ of our... own making.'

~George Elerick in "The Progressive Christian Alliance" discussing the Adam & Eve myth
