Modern Quotations Page "the deepest truth of the old story of Christian Orthodoxy is
that the divine nature is most fully seen not in lordly transcendence, but in
the agony of incarnation and crucifixion" "Listen to your life. See it for the fathomless mystery that
it is. In he boredom and pain of it no less than in the excitement and gladness;
touch, taste, smell your way into the holy and hidden heart of it because in the
last analysis all moments are kept moments, and life itself is a grace" "We ask to know the will of God without guessing that his will
is written into our very beings" "Eschatology teaches us to view time as a gift of God rather
than a resource to be managed" "Much of what passes for theological education is the
extension of the tree of knowledge of good and evil through history offering the
temptation to transcend our creatureliness. True worship is the opposite
invitation" |
