“The church is biblical, therefore, when it seeks to embody the words in the power of the Spirit and so become a living commentary.”
Kevin J. Vanhoozer, Faith Speaking Understanding: Performing the Drama of Doctrine

Kevin J. Vanhoozer
“To get a doctorate, you need only have a modicum of intelligence and the ability to grind it out. I’m afraid you may only be qualified to be an academic, not a pastor. Ministry is a lot harder than scholarship.”
Kevin J. Vanhoozer, The Pastor as Public Theologian: Reclaiming a Lost Vision

Kevin J. Vanhoozer
“The knowledge of God is a mountain steep indeed and difficult to climb—the majority of people scarcely reach its base. —Gregory of Nyssa, The Life of Moses”
Kevin J. Vanhoozer, Mere Christian Hermeneutics: Transfiguring What It Means to Read the Bible Theologically

Kevin J. Vanhoozer
“theology is the serious and joyful attempt to live blessedly with others, before God, in Christ, through the Spirit”
Kevin J. Vanhoozer, Faith Speaking Understanding: Performing the Drama of Doctrine

Kevin J. Vanhoozer
“If I speak in the tongues of Reformers and of professional theologians, and I have not personal faith in Christ, my theology is nothing but the noisy beating of a snare drum. And if I have analytic powers and the gift of creating coherent conceptual systems of theology, so as to remove liberal objections, and have not personal hope in God, I am nothing. And if I give myself to resolving the debate between supra and infralapsarianism, and to defending inerrancy, and to learning the Westminster Catechism, yea, even the larger one, so as to recite it by heart backwards and forwards, and have not love, I have gained nothing.”
Kevin Vanhoozer
