Ruth Haley Barton
“If the churches came to understand that the greatest threat to faith today is not hedonism but distraction, perhaps they might begin to appeal to a frazzled digital generation. Christian leaders seem to think that they need more distraction to counter the distraction.

“We are starved for quiet, to hear the sound of sheer silence that is the presence of God himself.”
