Douglas A. Knight
“The Bible refuses to provide a single view or center to its theology, despite the hope of biblical theologians and canonical critics that a center can be found. The biblical God is too mysterious, too magisterial, and too much interested in a relationship with humanity to be stuffed into a theological box.”
Douglas A. Knight, The Meaning of the Bible: What the Jewish Scriptures and Christian Old Testament Can Teach Us

Jonathan Sacks
“Now is the time for Jews, Christians and Muslims to say what they failed to say in the past: We are all children of Abraham. And whether we are Isaac or Ishmael, Jacob or Esau, Leah or Rachel, Joseph or his brothers, we are precious in the sight of God. We are blessed. And to be blessed, no one has to be cursed. God’s love does not work that way. Today God is calling us, Jew, Christian and Muslim, to let go of hate and the preaching of hate, and live at last as brothers and sisters, true to our faith and a blessing to others regardless of their faith, honouring God’s name by honouring his image, humankind.”
Jonathan Sacks, Not in God's Name: Confronting Religious Violence

“In virtue of our sin, we are, in short, like perfectly well-formed creatures living in an environment that is not good for us. The oxygen-rich environment, in which we were made to live, has now been transformed by our sin into a high altitude one that asphyxiates and enervates us.”
T. Tanner, Christ the Key

Barbara Brown Taylor
“The only clear line I draw these days is this: when my religion tries to come between me and my neighbor, I will choose my neighbor... Jesus never commanded me to love my religion.”
Barbara Brown Taylor, Holy Envy: Finding God in the Faith of Others

Thich Nhat Hanh
“My true home is not in the past, not in the future. My true home is life itself—it is in the here and now.”
Hanh, WORK: How To Find Joy And Meaning In Each Hour Of The Day
