how to make good human inter-beings
Maslow asked how to make a good human being. We now must ask how to make good human inter-beings, that is people who birth and give the fullest life to each other. Presence, hearing, attention are clues. So too stories and questions and dreams.

This is saving:
This is saving: saving for life. Saving for living of life. And the living is in the interconnections, in between people.
The “saving” then is a saving for engaging life, not for some far off domain in some never-time. It is here and now. It is about us, as humanity and not about individuals.
This is who G*d is: a divine human, represented perfectly in Jesus, aspired to by the vast majority of people, but not seen. So the saving is a saving from the emotion of guilt and the emotion of O poor me inadequacy, toward collaboration and action.
