  1. Seeds Already In the Soil

    At the 1996 California Bay Area Retreat CFO, Norman Elliott says CFO has grown too religious, substituting theology and ritual for the releasing experience Glenn Clark meant it to be. Working from the kingdom that is already within, he gathers bonsai trees kept small by trimmed roots and the flowers that came up in bombed London after centuries under pavement. He closes in Matthew with faith that has to be acted rather than recited.

  2. Freed But Still Slaves

    Norman Elliott tells the 1996 California Bay Area Retreat CFO of freed people in Chad, who insisted they were still slaves because the law had never reached their minds, and uses it for every truth held but never claimed. He rereads the wilderness temptations as real hunger rather than a thought experiment, and leaves the rich young ruler walking away still loved.
