“A primary goal of liturgical spirituality—that is, spirituality that is grounded and formed by regularly repeated fixed patterns of prayers, scripture, and ritual actions—is to create a disciplined recollection of God.”

“But though I do not believe in exhibitions of God's anger, I do believe in exhibitions of his mercy. When men by their folly and by the shortness of their vision have brought upon themselves penalties which seem to be overwhelming, to which no end can be seen, which would be overwhelming were no aid coming to us but our own, then God raises his hand, not in anger, but in mercy, and by his wisdom does for us that for which our own wisdom has been insufficient.”
