Quotes by Stephen J. Nichols  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The church is the real thing when it is not consumed with the assertion of power in culture, but it is driven by service to others. The word ministry translates the Greek word diakonia, which means service. The church must be about serving others. When a church can lay claim to all three criteria, namely, preaching of the Word, being true to its confession, and focusing on serving, then it’s a church worth going to. And then it’s a church full of sermons worth listening to.”
Stephen J. Nichols, Bonhoeffer on the Christian Life: From the Cross, for the World

“We could summarize all of this background to Bonhoeffer’s christology in one sentence, albeit a complex one: The cross was a stumbling block to the Romans; the cross was a stumbling block to the Nazis; the cross was a stumbling block to moderns; and—unless we are humbled and brought low beneath the cross to see its power and beauty—the cross can be a stumbling block to us.”
Stephen J. Nichols, Bonhoeffer on the Christian Life: From the Cross, for the World

“R. C. would later say that theology is doxology; that is to say that studying God and knowing God lead to praising God and worshiping God.”
Stephen J. Nichols, R. C. Sproul: A Life
