#sensemchat Hi everyone! It's Blakely, so great to be part of the chat today!

A2: Fr. Greg Boyle lives out every goal, but in particular goal #4: building community as a Christian value. Stated before, I believe that Gregory Boyle helps others through the love of Christ. #sensemchat

A1: Gregory Boyle describes kinship as this way of fostering a relationship with others as a friend, and through God he carries out the teaching of Jesus. #sensemchat

A1 (Part 2): "Yet it is God's dream come true when we recognize that there exists no daylight between us" (Boyle 188). I believe that this quote is what God's intention is for us as humans, and how we can live out the idea of kinship. #sensemchat

A3: I think that this term "downward mobility" essentially means that we have to take a pause from always wanting to move "up" in our lives and reconnect with the present. In my opinion, this term can be related to the idea of being "down to earth". #sensemchat

A4: Boyle writes "I can locate, knowing that there is some divine ingenuity here, 'the slow work of God,' that gets done if we're faithful" (Boyle 186). I think that Boyle is saying that even though therre are hardships, God has success within them. #sensemchat
