N.T. Wright
“When God looks at sin, what he sees is what a violin maker would see if the player were to use his lovely creation as a tennis racquet.”
N.T. Wright, The Day the Revolution Began: Reconsidering the Meaning of Jesus's Crucifixion

“those who lack self-definition, whether they are children, marriage partners, employees, clients, therapists, or supervisors, will always perceive those who are well-defined to be “headstrong.”
Edwin H Friedman, A Failure of Nerve: Leadership in the Age of the Quick Fix

N.T. Wright
“The powers that have stolen the worshipping hearts of the world and that have in consequence usurped the human rule over the world would like nothing better than for humans to think only of escaping the world rather than taking back their priestly and royal vocations.”
N.T. Wright, The Day the Revolution Began: Reconsidering the Meaning of Jesus's Crucifixion

N.T. Wright
“humans were made to be “vicegerents.” That is, they were to act on God’s behalf within his world. But that is only possible and can only escape serious and dangerous distortion when worship precedes action.”
N.T. Wright, The Day the Revolution Began: Reconsidering the Meaning of Jesus's Crucifixion

N.T. Wright
“Worship” was and is a matter of gazing with delight, gratitude, and love at the creator God and expressing his praise in wise, articulate speech. Those who do this are formed by this activity to become the generous, humble stewards through whom God’s creative and sustaining love is let loose into the world.”
N.T. Wright, The Day the Revolution Began: Reconsidering the Meaning of Jesus's Crucifixion
