Rachel Held Evans
“Dignified or not, believable or not, ours is a God perpetually on bended knee, doing everything it takes to convince stubborn and petulant children that they are seen and loved. It is no more beneath God to speak to us using poetry, proverb, letters, and legend than it is for a mother to read storybooks to her daughter at bedtime. This is who God is. This is what God does.”
Rachel Held Evans, Inspired: Slaying Giants, Walking on Water, and Loving the Bible Again

Barbara Brown Taylor
“1. When trying to understand another religion, you should ask the adherents of the religion and not its enemies.
2. Don't compare your best to their worst.
3. Leave room for holy envy.

(Krister Stendahl's rules of religious understanding)”
Barbara Brown Taylor, Holy Envy: Finding God in the Faith of Others

Rachel Held Evans
“I am a Christian,” I concluded, “because the story of Jesus is still the story I’m willing to risk being wrong about.”
Rachel Held Evans, Inspired: Slaying Giants, Walking on Water, and Loving the Bible Again

Barbara Brown Taylor
“It was when your partner left you that you remembered what else you meant to do in your life beyond staying together.”
Barbara Brown Taylor, An Altar in the World: A Geography of Faith

Barbara Brown Taylor
“I read science for the same reason I read theology: because I am a seeker after truth.”
Barbara Brown Taylor, The Luminous Web: Essays on Science and Religion
