Subtle as Serpents, gentle as Doves


Edited by: Peter Sajda, Rebecca Blocksome, Nagypál Szabolcs
BGÖI -WSCF-CESR - OIKUMENÉ-AKADEMICKÁ YMCA, Praha, 2005

In our ecumenical anthology we link two complementary areas of Christian presence in the affairs of this world. The serpent, on the one hand, is a symbol of the human eternally bound to Earth. We can never become indifferent towards the environment that co-creates us; and towards our social milieu that we are called to live in and co-shape. The dove, on the other hand, is the symbol of independence, a healthy detachment from the worries, pressures and manipulations of our surroundings.
Ultimately, we are called to reach towards the freedom of the children of God.
