Rachel Held Evans
“All Sabbath is rest, but not all rest is Sabbath. Rest is not Sabbath if your comfort is contingent on others' discomfort. Rest is not Sabbath if it exacerbates inequity rather than diminishing it.”
Rachel Held Evans, Wholehearted Faith

Rachel Held Evans
“There is liberation in not having to know everything and not having to impress everyone with that boundless knowledge.”
Rachel Held Evans, Wholehearted Faith

Simone Weil
“The love of our neighbour in all its fullness simply means being able to say to him: “What are you going through?” It is a recognition that the sufferer exists, not only as a unit in a collection, or a specimen from the social category labelled “unfortunate,” but as a man, exactly like us, who was one day stamped with a special mark by affliction. For this reason it is enough, but it is indispensable, to know how to look at him in a certain way.
This way of looking is first of all attentive. The soul empties itself of all its own contents in order to receive into itself the being it is looking at, just as he is, in all his truth.”
Simone Weil, Waiting for God

Rachel Held Evans
“So convinced God lived in the boxes I’d constructed, I failed to look for God in God’s favorite place: the margins.”
Rachel Held Evans, Wholehearted Faith

Cole Arthur Riley
“How boring to spend the whole of my vocational energy trying to figure out if I am choosing the right work. It is of much greater interest to me to talk about how I’m going to do the work with integrity. How am I going to protect dignity as I work? And what truths are calling out to me as I work?”
Cole Arthur Riley, This Here Flesh: Spirituality, Liberation, and the Stories That Make Us
