One question I've asked myself on the topic of culture is: Can we appreciate and celebrate our differences and still live in a way that expresses unity? The answer I've discovered is this: Yes, but it depends on where we start and what our definition of culture is.
My starting point is the number one — one God and one creation. That's so powerful to me because that's our unity right there. We were all created by the same God. We have the same Father-Mother.
What does that mean for culture? Well, it means culture isn't something outside God. It isn't a human or material creation, but expresses something of the nature of God. To me, putting culture in spiritual terms, then, means thinking about it in terms of qualities.
