“Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth As fun as the acronym is, the Bible is neither basic nor simply instructions for what to do before you die.”
Adam Hamilton, Making Sense of the Bible: Rediscovering the Power of Scripture Today

“At the very least they teach us that God does not always answer our prayers, even when we offer those prayers in faith at times of real and pressing need. They also teach us that while God may not answer our prayers as we pray them, God does not abandon us. More than that, these accounts tell us that God works through the situations from which we have not been delivered as we asked.”
Adam Hamilton, Why? Making Sense of God's Will

“Jesus consistently put people before rules.”
Adam Hamilton, When Christians Get It Wrong
