Why Everyone’s Sacred Matters Now

Why Everyone’s Sacred Matters Now

Sometimes the timing of a book
is as important as its words.

As I anticipate the arrival of Everyone’s Sacred in November,
I feel its urgency in ways I didn’t anticipate when I began.

The cultural ground beneath us is shifting.
Divides deepen.
Labels are hurled like weapons.
Neighbors stand across lines
that feel harder and harder to cross.

Many sense the shadow of collapse—
whether political, social, or spiritual.

Everyone’s Sacred was never meant as escape.
It isn’t “pie in the sky.”
It doesn’t replace one doctrine with another.

It’s about breath.
About touch.
About the garment of meaning we’ve worn all along—
even when we didn’t have words for it.

Sacred Imagination doesn’t defend belief.
It invites presence.

It gives us a way to hold grief—without despair.
To honor wounds—without weaponizing them.
To walk together—without demanding the same map.

Already my heart turns toward January 2026—
and Everyone’s Dream.

It may be the most necessary book yet.

Where Everyone’s Sacred roots us in breath and garment,
Everyone’s Dream carries us toward the Hearth,
the Fire,
and the Pathstones.

Shared practices
that might help us remain human—
even if the structures around us fracture.

If we can tend the Hearth,
carry the Fire,
and walk with the Pathstones,

we may yet discover a way of being together
that is more than law,
more than ideology—
something that remembers what it means to be human.

I believe timing matters.

And maybe—just maybe—
these books are arriving when they’re most needed.

Not because they’re perfect.
But because they’re present.

And presence—
simple, steady, human presence—
may be the most radical gift
we can offer one another
right now.
