Many historians love the research so much they don’t want to stop; they are happier finding information than analysing and writing it. Like a detective, the historian loves following a trail of evidence, with each thread revealing an

“Everything of this world is shakable. Buildings crumble into dust, companies declare bankruptcy, our degrees fade into illegibility, our houses age and creak and crumble, our cars rust out, and worst of all, our bodies eventually wear out. But the kingdom of God lasts forever. When the angel Gabriel came to Mary, he said that she would give birth to a Son who would “rule over the house of his father Jacob, and of his kingdom there will be no end” (Luke 1:33).”

“In fact, if you are in the middle of a heated discussion with someone and they ask, “Well, what do you think?” it is perfectly reasonable to tell them you don’t yet know what you think. Yes, this may frustrate some people. They may think you’re copping out. They may even accuse you of not knowing your own mind. But I have found that many times what I was going to say (but thankfully didn’t!) was not in the end what I wanted to express.

“we doubt, we acknowledge our fallibility and humanity. We’re admitting we don’t have all the answers (and that some of the answers we thought we had have turned out to be wrong), but we want to keep discovering. We want to grow “in grace and knowledge” (2 Pet 3:18). Doubters at least have a chance of moving beyond superficial spirituality. If we don’t ask, seek, and knock, we can end up with a faith that is about as deep as a roadside puddle. If we decide to cast our lot with popular religion, with its bumper-sticker theology and emotional hysteria, we will be on a broad road traveled by many people.”
