Caribleaper – theology in limbo spaces. Theology in limbo spaces. March 17, 2015. February 18, 2016. Ready to spring a surprise. No not the words. Around, between, within them. Words and non-verbal signals. Or the internal dialogue. The one battling in the head. At the core of our being. The flickering of hope. Sharp, bright, illuminating. Conversation is more than words. Mind the silence around them. Not vacuous spaces to be filled. Opening hearts and minds. To receive the whisper. May need no words.
