God embraces us in the incarnation, death, and resurrection.

Spirituality is to respond to God’s embrace in repentance, baptism, and the reception of the Holy Spirit.

Metanoia

Repentance is not a one-time act but a continual turning away from all that is evil and death.

Baptism

The creative waters of God mark our new identity in Jesus. Baptism reveals that we have been embraced by Jesus, and united with him; we are to share his vision for the world. It is a new identity.

Holy Spirit

The Spirit, which is the seal of God’s embrace, brings us into fellowship with the Triune God: a sharing in his vision for the world, a belonging to his body on earth, an anticipation of his ultimate victory over all evil.
