A Wendell Berry Friendship Story

This post is written in reflection of the recent passing of Kentucky farmer and author, Wendell Berry, at 92.

C.S. Lewis writes in The Four Loves that friendship sparks at the moment of saying, “You too?” after discovering a mutual interest with someone else. My interest in Wendell Berry has been like that.

My first formal introduction to Wendell Berry was the novel Jayber Crow, recommended to m

I've been enriched by all the Orthodox material I've consumed over the past year, and this is no exception. This book ticks a lot of boxes. It's a great summary of the canon, Bible translation philosophy, and common assumptions to these topics as wel ...more

Robert Jordan
“Never make a plan without knowing as much as you can of the enemy. Never be afraid to change your plans when you receive new information. Never believe you know everything. And never wait to know everything.”
Robert Jordan, Lord of Chaos

A.W. Tozer
“God sovereignly decreed that man should be free to exercise moral choice, and man from the beginning has fulfilled that decree by making his choice between good and evil. When he chooses to do evil, he does not thereby countervail the sovereign will of God but fulfills it, inasmuch as the eternal decree decided not which choice the man should make but that he should be free to make it. If in His absolute freedom God has willed to give man limited freedom, who is there to stay His hand or say, 'What doest thou?' Man’s will is free because God is sovereign. A God less than sovereign could not bestow moral freedom upon His creatures. He would be afraid to do so.”
A.W. Tozer, The Knowledge of the Holy

“Some books claiming to be exhaustive are only exhausting to read.”
A.W. Tozer, Preparing for Jesus' Return: Daily Live the Blessed Hope

Dallas Willard
“An obsession merely with doing all God commands may be the very thing that rules out being the kind of person that he calls us to be.”
Dallas Willard, Hearing God: Developing a Conversational Relationship with God

Julian of Norwich
“Some of us believe that God is almighty, and can do everything; and that he is all wise, and may do everything; but that he is all love, and will do everything— there we draw back.”
