A long time ago, there were two religious leaders disagreeing on how to apply Scripture to daily life.
When seeking help to resolve it, a third leader spoke into the situation, saying "elu v'elu" meaning “these and also these are the words of the living God”.
The methods of the two leaders were not in conflict. Both groups were being faithful to live out God's calling.
It represents a shift from either/or to both/and, an affirmation that following God requires collaboration in faith and practice.
Elu was started by Christian leaders, a social worker and a pastor, who have integrated their professional and theological perspectives to create a space for bringing things together, finding harmony in difference, and listening actively to God.
Professional business practices, sound medical advice, faithful theological understanding, disciplined spiritual practices, and depth of personal experience are the foundation of our collaborative work at Elu.
