Dallas Willard
“We don't believe something by merely saying we believe it, or even when we believe that we believe it. We believe something when we act as if it were true.”
Dallas Willard, Renovation of the Heart: Putting On the Character of Christ

Adam M. Grant
“It’s more important to be good ancestors than dutiful descendants. Too many people spend their lives being custodians of the past instead of stewards of the future. We worry about making our parents proud when we should be focused on making our children proud. The responsibility of each generation is not to please our predecessors—it’s to improve conditions for our successors.”
Adam M. Grant, Hidden Potential: The Science of Achieving Greater Things

Ronald Rolheiser
“Thus, the invitation remains, despite its hazards: like Jesus, like Mary, and like everyone else who’s ever walked this planet, every adult woman or man will find herself or himself, this side of eternity, inside families, communities, churches, friendships, and work circles that are filled with tensions of every kind. The natural temptation, always, is to simply give back in kind, jealousy for jealousy, gossip for gossip, anger for anger. But the invitation that comes to us from the Gospels, the invitation to move from being a good person to becoming a great person, is the invitation to step forward and help carry and purify this tension, to help take it away by transforming it inside ourselves, by pondering as Mary pondered.”
Ronald Rolheiser, Sacred Fire: A Vision for a Deeper Human and Christian Maturity

David McCullough
“One of my favorite lines from an inaugural address is this—I wonder if you remember who said it? “How can we love our country and not love our countrymen? And loving them, reach out a hand when they fall, heal them when they’re sick, and provide opportunities to make them self-sufficient so they will be equal in fact and not just in theory.” It was said by Ronald Reagan.”
David McCullough, The American Spirit: Who We Are and What We Stand For

Miroslav Volf
“Everything else follows from this responsibility to those who have come before us. It is the root of flourishing humanity.”
Miroslav Volf, Life Worth Living: A Guide to What Matters Most
