The gift of religion is an understanding of what it means to be a human being – what we can do, what we can hope for, how we can live with purpose, and what is expected of us. It is a celebration of human freedom, human possibility and human responsibility.
It is a way to live a heroic life, to construct a life devoted to values that are eternal, values of ultimate significance.
The reward of your life is walking the world with a profound faith that you matter, your life matters, your dreams matter.
