“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge;         because you have rejected knowledge,         I reject you from being a priest to me.     And since you have forgotten the law of your God,         I also will forget your children.”

“postmodern approaches to knowledge inflate a small, almost banal kernel of truth—that we are limited in our ability to know and must express knowledge through language, concepts and categories—to insist that all claims to truth are value-laden constructs of culture.”

“It is simply a mark of your maturity and self-control when you can manage your emotions enough to understand someone you differ with.”

“So here’s the real heart of the matter: Does God have a secret will of direction that He expects us to figure out before we do anything? And the answer is no. Yes, God has a specific plan for our lives. And yes, we can be assured that He works things for our good in Christ Jesus. And yes, looking back we will often be able to trace God’s hand in bringing us to where we are. But while we are free to ask God for wisdom, He does not burden us with the task of divining His will of direction for our lives ahead of time.”
