The Story of God and Us The story arc of the Bible shows God at work providing a Good Place for us. The story arc of human history shows our various efforts to establish Good Places to live - from nations to neighborhoods to living rooms.
A Good Place: 1. where we experience and receive grace;
2. where we allow God’s grace to flow through us to others for the benefit of all.
God’s Purpose: us living in a Good Place.
God creates Good Places - from the motivation of love - through actions designed and directed by love - while in love with us - for the purpose of filling the world with love .
From love by love in love for love
God creates the world.
Love is the urstoff - that by which we understand the world.
