Book cover for Blood Hollow (Cork O'Connor, #4)
“It would be easy if we all had visions, or if we all believed in those who did. My own feeling is that faith was never meant to be easy.”
Bill Peake
As a clergyman I know “faith was never meant to be easy.” If faith is a luxury liner - it is not faith! Faith is a lifeboat, always being swamped by our stormy seas!

Herman Melville
“Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically knocking people's hats off - then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can.”
Herman Melville, Moby Dick

William Kent Krueger
“I think the human heart’s a mystery only God knows the answer to.”
William Kent Krueger, The Devil's Bed

Harper Lee
“Prejudice, a dirty word, and faith, a clean one, have something in common: they both begin where reason ends.”
Harper Lee, Go Set a Watchman

Louisa May Alcott
“Passers-by probably thought them a pair of harmless lunatics, for they entirely forgot to hail a bus, and strolled leisurely along, oblivious of deepening dusk and fog. Little they cared what anybody thought, for they were enjoying the happy hour that seldom comes but once in any life, the magical moment which bestows youth on the old, beauty on the plain, wealth on the poor, and gives human hearts a foretaste of heaven.”
Louisa May Alcott, Little Women

“Sin is not about the personal imperfection of the self. Rather, sin is any act that breaks any of the relationships God declared very good in the beginning.”
Lisa Sharon Harper
