Quotes by Paula Gooder (?)

“On waiting Advent, then, calls us into a state of active waiting: a state that recognizes and embraces the glimmers of God’s presence in the world, that recalls and celebrates God’s historic yet ever-present actions and that speaks the truth about the almost-but-not-quite nature of our Christian living, which yearns for but cannot quite achieve divine perfection. Most of all, Advent summons us to the present moment, to a still yet active, a tranquil yet steadfast commitment to the life we live now. It is this to which Advent beckons us, and without it our Christian journey is impoverished.”
― Paula Gooder, The Meaning is in the Waiting: The Spirit of Advent

“but my own view is that if heaven is to be considered to be a realm which is in any way ‘real’, then it is not beyond the bounds of possibility that it is populated with heavenly beings.”
― Paula Gooder, Heaven
