David G. Benner
“If God has come in the flesh, and if God keeps coming to us in our fleshly existence, then all of life is shot through with meaning. Earth is crammed with heaven, and heaven (when we finally get there) will be crammed with earth. Nothing wasted. Nothing lost. Nothing secular. Nothing absurd.... All are grist for the mill of a downto-earth spirituality.”
David G. Benner, The Gift of Being Yourself: The Sacred Call to Self-Discovery

Henri J.M. Nouwen
“I am the prodigal son every time I search for unconditional love where it cannot be found.”
Henri J.M. Nouwen, The Return of the Prodigal Son: A Story of Homecoming

Bryan Stevenson
“Finally, I've come to believe that the true measure of our commitment to justice, the character of our society, our commitment to the rule of law, fairness, and equality cannot be measured by how we treat the rich, the powerful, the privileged, and the respected among us. The true measure of our character is how we treat the poor, the disfavored, the accused, the incarcerated, and the condemned. We are all implicated when we allow other people to be mistreated.”
Bryan Stevenson, Just Mercy

Bryant L. Myers
“Poverty is about relationships that don't work, that isolate, that abandon or devalue. Transformation must be about restoring relationships, just and right relationships with God, with self, with community, with the “other,” and with the environment.”
Bryant L. Myers, Walking with the Poor: Principles and Practices of Transformational Development

Bryant L. Myers
“The truth must be discovered about the way the poor contribute to their own poverty, and the truth must be discovered about how poverty is created by the god-complexes of the non-poor, inadequacies of worldview, and deception by the principalities and powers. Only in repenting in the face of God's truth can relationships be restored so that life, justice, and peace (shalom) can be restored. Thus, in a Christian process of change, every development action and process must be tested for its contribution to truth and justice.”
Bryant L. Myers
