The door is a prominent symbol in the Christian scriptures. We read of Jesus knocking at the door, (Matt 7:8, Luke 11:9, Rev 3:20). It is through the narrow door that one must pass in order to recognize Truth (Luke 13:24) and it is necessary for the door to be open for the message to be heard (Acts 14:27, 2 Cor 2:12, Col 4:3).

In our logo this door is half open symbolizing the decision we face to push it open or pull it shut.

Behind the door is all that God has in store for us were we to walk through the opening.  This is called Grace.  It represents the unlimited promises, the gifts, freely given to us. Whether through lack of faith or courage we are free to refuse God's Grace.

Notice that the rays of Grace extend around the door.  There are no walls. We could walk right around the door directly into God's Grace.  There is only a door because we believe there is a barrier.

The door represents the obstacles we erect, the rituals we believe we must accomplish, the service we must perform, the worthiness we must acquire, whatever we use as reasons not to believe God's unconditional love, acceptance and forgiveness and simply accept them.  To accept is enlightenment.

There is no need for the door other than to represent the resistance many carry to believing that God is already giving us everything we need for our life. There is no more for us in this life "out there" or later. All is here and now. The Spirit of Christ dwells within. Our logo invites us to open the door and walk into the Light of Life found within our own being.
