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. Their services have degenerated into emotional spasms, their spaces drowned with light and noise and locked shut throughout the day, when their darkness and silence might actually draw those whose minds and souls have grown web-weary.”
Ruth Haley Barton, Invitation to Retreat: The Gift and Necessity of Time Away with God

“The truth dazzles gradually,” wrote Emily Dickinson, “or else the world would go blind.”
Robert Benson, In Constant Prayer

Trevin K. Wax
“Grant me, O Lord, a listening ear to hear you and a hungry soul to long after your Word. Endue me with your heavenly Spirit. Give me the Spirit of wisdom, that I may understand you. Give me the Spirit of truth, that I may know you; your Spirit of compassion that I may fear you; your Spirit of grace that I may love you; your Spirit of zeal that I may hunger and thirst after you; your persevering Spirit that I may live and dwell and reign with you. Elizabeth”
Trevin K. Wax, Psalms in 30 Days: CSB Edition

“Because we do not rest we lose our way.... Poisoned by the hypnotic belief that good things come only through unceasing determination and tireless effort, we can never truly rest. And for want of rest our lives are in danger.”
Ruth Haley Barton, Invitation to Solitude and Silence: Experiencing God's Transforming Presence

Trevin K. Wax
“O merciful God, whatever you may deny me, do not deny me this love. Save me from the idolatry of loving the world, or any of the things of the world. Let me never love any creature but for your sake and in subordination to your love. Take full possession of my heart; raise there your throne and command there as you do in heaven. Being created by you, let me live to you; being created for you, let me ever act for your glory; being redeemed by you, let me render to you what is yours and let my spirit ever cleave to you alone. John Wesley”
Trevin K. Wax, Psalms in 30 Days: CSB Edition
