What is the Word? Faith is from Caring

Alyssa and Cory continue their exploration of the mystical book, Faith, from 18th-century scientist turned spiritual visionary, Emanuel Swedenborg. They find that according to him, faith is nothing without care and compassion, and should center on a love for the good in all people.

Our community's affirming Swedenborgian spirituality, inspired by an interfaith, mystical Christianity, has deeply influenced the likes of Helen Keller, Carl Jung, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Johnny Appleseed (John Chapman), William Blake, Henry James, Robert Frost, DT Suzuki, George Inness and William Keith.
