“Today would be a good day as any to get on up get on out of bed. Step outside and be surprised at what you’re finding. You deserve a day outside your head.”

“I’m not sure where God and I will end up, but I know that I only want to be friends with God if God is . . . different than I’ve been taught. If I come back to God after all this and find that God is a kinder, more loving presence than the one I’ve known, great. And if God is more loving than I’ve been taught, then I think God would be okay with me needing some time to untangle this. I think God would want me to feel a shred of happiness. That is the impression I’m getting from all this prayer and meditation. And for once, I’m going to trust myself and my feelings.”

“I think I learned you move forward differently after the worst thing you can ever imagine happening actually happens.”

“I absolutely love the Bible. I hold it in high esteem and take great joy in connecting with God through Scripture. But I also recognize that it was never intended to be a medical or scientific text. It doesn't tell us how to perform lifesaving open-heart surgery. It doesn't explain how to treat diabetes, cancer, or Alzheimer's disease. It also doesn't tell us how to treat mental illness or trauma.”
