Quotes by John Alan Turner  (?)

“I’ve come to realize that the entire Bible is crazy. It’s not as if there are a few crazy stories tucked away in unusual corners of the text; they’re everywhere. This is our God. His character is as consistent as His behavior is erratic. His promise is as dependable as His plan is unpredictable. Sometimes, it is ten plagues; sometimes, it is Ten Commandments, or the death of the firstborn, or a virgin birth. Ultimately, it is an execution that leads to a resurrection. About the only sure thing in any of these stories is that there will always, always, always be a surprise.”
John A. Turner, Crazy Stories, Sane God: Lessons from the Most Unexpected Places in the Bible

“God is willing to suffer to get what He wants; evil is not.”
John Alan Turner, Crazy Stories, Sane God: Lessons from the Most Unexpected Places in the Bible

“God is not opposed to pride because it is something only He can possess; God is opposed to pride because pride is unlike Him.”
John A. Turner, Crazy Stories, Sane God: Lessons from the Most Unexpected Places in the Bible
