“... the knowledge traditionally associated with the center is deeply compromised by its sheer lack of knowledge ... with regards to the margins ... [on the margins one] knows (and has been required to know) far more about the center than the center ever knows ... about the margins.”
Fernando Segovia

“The symbol [of the cross] often swallows the historic scandal that gave it birth and appeases the appalling experience with which the first generation of Christians had to come to terms.”
Vitor Westhelle

“Christ is everywhere, closer to everything created than these things are to themselves. God's embodiment through Christ encompasses the world.”
Vitor Westhelle, The Scandalous God: The Use and Abuse of the Cross

“Jesus suffered because he named the cause of suffering, the law that kills”
Vitor Westhelle, The Scandalous God: The Use and Abuse of the Cross

“The kingdom is nearby, adjacent to our own reality, present, yet veiled in the boundaries we avoid, and in the margins we protect ourselves from. So there is no riddle. The eschatological reality is here, yet we feel the urge to evade it, and the lure to ignore it.”
Vitor Westhelle
