I started your article not knowing what an agrarian is. By the end, I had gathered it means to tend, to care for God's creation according to our circumstances. And to seek wholeness, healing, and beauty. Have I got that right?

One other thing, you have an important typo you might want to correct: an out-of-place not. I am ** going to give the game away.

Indeed, Ann, that is a significant part of what being an agrarian is. Agrarianism as a philosophy is concerned with a good use of the land (especially as it pertains to agriculture.

And thanks for pointing out the typo! Embarrassing.

The solution is to remember Einstein's remark that time is just a stubbornly persistent illusion. Easier said than done in our current reality, but true.

“…good and proper practice utterly depends on the contexts of place, limitations, and personal capacity.” So true.

The idea of the kingdom being here and not here yet has been very helpful to me in terms of how I think about the world. Your article has been a very good reminder that it needs to guide how I act in the world too! Great article.

What a great read, yes I think the end times should find us doing what is right, moral, ethical, and creating beauty. Ooo I like what Ann said - seeking wholeness, healing, and beauty.
