“We have little power over the course the world is taking. That much I learned from my husband's experience. But we do have power over our personal dominions.”

“I often wonder what Christians in the United States will need to leave behind in order to embrace the adventure God has before us. I wonder what God might be stripping away so we can cling, desperately and helplessly, only to him. How does the longing for power, privelege, and position freeze us in place? How do our financial resources, technologival tools, and cultural arrogance insulate us from an honest encounter with God and with the world?
What might it look like for us to travel lightly today?”

“Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? – every, every minute?’ asks Emily in Thornton Wilder’s 1938 play Our Town. The answer, of course, is no. How could we? It’s all we’ve ever known. But contemplating the end can help.”

“One can never fully explain one's own motivations, let alone another's reasons for doing things. It's not just what people hide from each other. It's not knowing in the first place.”
