EC05: pomomusings on T(t)ruth

May 19, 2005 Adam Walker Cleaveland

What is Truth, truth or T(t)ruth?

One thing mentioned over and over again today during our “Truth” Learning Community was that truth is found in community. Now, I’m not sure exactly which way to run with that – is truth found? Created? Discovered? Or anything else?

My understanding of truth is that truth with a capital T, (Truth) can only be found in Jesus Christ. Truth with a lower-case t (truth) is simply any and all truth that is fully present in all of creation, including all of humanity.

Therefore, if truth resides everywhere, and truth is found/formed/discovered by community – then my question is: Who is your community? Because, I’ll guess that many people were going to simply assume that the “community” is simply a community of believers & Christians.

However, it seems to me that since we are all created in God’s image (whatever that means), we are all on the journey and sojourn after truth – the process. And, we need as many people along for the ride to see different aspects of truth and God.

Questions: Who would you consider to be a part of your “community?” and/or “Where does truth come from to begin with?
