Rachel Held Evans
“God, go with us. Help us to be an honor to the church. Give us the grace to follow Christ’s word, to be clear in our task and careful in our speech. Give us open hands and joyful hearts. Let Christ be on our lips. May our lives reflect a love of truth and compassion. Let no one come to us and go away sad. May we offer hope to the poor, and solace to the disheartened. Let us so walk before God’s people, that those who follow us might come into his kingdom. Let us sow living seeds, words that are quick with life, that faith may be the harvest in people’s hearts. In word and in example let your light shine in the dark like the morning star. Do not allow the wealth of the world or its enchantment flatter us into silence as to your truth. Do not permit the powerful, or judges, or our dearest friends to keep us from professing what is right. Amen.”
Rachel Held Evans, Searching for Sunday: Loving, Leaving, and Finding the Church

“He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” —Micah 6:8”
Brennan Manning, Dear Abba: Morning and Evening Prayer

Henri J.M. Nouwen
“Let’s not be afraid to look at everything that has brought us to where we are now and trust that we will soon see in it the guiding hand of a loving God.”
Henri J.M. Nouwen, Bread for the Journey: A Daybook of Wisdom and Faith

Brennan Manning
“We can embrace our whole life story in the knowledge that we have been graced and made beautiful by the providence of our past history. All the wrong turns in the past, the detours, mistakes, moral lapses, everything that is irrevocably ugly or painful, melts and dissolves in the warm glow of accepted tenderness. As theologian Kevin O’Shea writes, “One rejoices in being unfrightened to be open to the healing presence, no matter what one might be or what one might have done.” —A Glimpse of Jesus”
Brennan Manning, Dear Abba: Morning and Evening Prayer

John C. Maxwell
“We are all failures—at least, all the best of us are. —J. M. BARRIE”
John C. Maxwell, Failing Forward: Turning Mistakes into Stepping Stones for Success
