Translating

“If we are going to thrive as a vibrant pluralistic religious movement, the question of translation becomes critical. Because if we are going to use language that is evocative, language that leads us to depth, drawn from many traditions and sources, then we need to be mindful that each and every one who hears our words will be translating. All of us are hearing those words through our own life lenses, bringing our own meanings to the experience of being together.” -William Sinkford
