Long influenced by Yale theology professor Willie James Jennings, Frank Scoffield Nellessen spoke about God creating home: a place of safety, of love, of belonging, where we could provide for and take care of one another, get to know one another: a place of life. For “to be a creature is fundamentally to be a homemaker."

The Word became flesh and made his home among us. —John 1:14.

The word made flesh continues to unfold home among us. And so God’s home opens up to us, fully draws us in and is given away like Jesus’ body.
