“[He said] when you read the Bible17, you must think that here and now God is speaking with me. . . . He wasn’t as abstract as the Greek teachers and all the others. Rather, from the very beginning, he taught us that we had to read the Bible as it was directed at us, as the word of God directly to us. Not something general, not something generally applicable, but rather with a personal relationship to us.”
― Eric Metaxas, Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy

“There is hardly any difference between the behaviour of Christians and non-Christians in the West,”
― Patrick Sookhdeo, The Death of Western Christianity: Drinking from the Poisoned Wells of the Cultural Revolution

“Behind the political and social crisis of the church in modern society, there stands the Christological crisis: From whom does the church really take its bearings? Who is Jesus Christ, really, for us today? In this identity-crisis of Christianity, the question of God lies hidden: Which God governs Christian existence — the one who was crucified or the idols of religion, class, race and society? Without a new clarity in Christian faith itself, there will be no credibility in Christian life. — Jürgen Moltmann (1973)”
