The Good Life
The good life is a life that we ingest, that we take into ourselves, that we munch on, that we chomp on.
The good life, Jesus in John often says, is a matter of abiding, dwelling, living in. It’s a matter of going to the dance and actually dancing. It’s a matter of not just watching sports but participating in them. It’s a matter of having a friend not just in theory, but in practice—doing things with them, talking with them. It’s a matter of having a marriage that is not just an idea, but a physical reality.
