Faith, hope & charity

After discussing these Christian virtues with John at his place about 5 years ago, I arrived home to find this on my voicemail.

The activity of faith is hope and the foundation of faith is connexion and connexion is between human beings and human beings and everything - something we perhaps can call love. The ground is connexion - unless you're connected there's no reason to have any life at all or anything like faith. What enables faith to work is the feeling, the continuous reinforcement of that faith through the work. So all of them exist and they're all inter-dependent. If you don't go forwards you don't investigate the implications of faith.

John Kells, 2000
