Quick Summary:

Woven top to bottom through Isaiah's prophetic oracle are IMAGES alternating between the NATURAL WORLD and the HUMAN SPHERE – LINKING THEM AS IF they were inseparably connected, AS IF they were, in fact, ONE. WHAT DO THESE IMAGES TELL US?
? That God’s dream for this Earth is bigger than just the human story.
? That God’s dream for this Earth encompasses more than human liberation.

If ADVENT is a season of HOLY DISRUPTION then one thing that needs to be DISRUPTED is the notion that you and I occupy a special sphere of influence which allows us to operate separately and apart from the rest of creation……That HUMAN ways of being are, by rights, more privileged than other ways of being.
