Kaitlyn Schiess
“What is government? What is the
relationship between theology and politics? How should Christians think about their political participation? These questions
typically get lost in our conversations. We jump into the juicy fight of the moment, whip out our favorite Bible verses, and completely forget to ask if we even agree on the nature of human government or the relationship between the church and earthly governments.”
Kaitlyn Schiess, The Ballot and the Bible: How Scripture Has Been Used and Abused in American Politics and Where We Go from Here

“The Oxford scholar and apologist C. S. Lewis, whose spirit will accompany us through this book, once closed a lecture to a group of apologists like this:

'I have found that nothing is more dangerous to one’s own faith than the work of an apologist. No doctrine of that faith seems to me so spectral, so unreal as the one that I have just successfully defended in a public debate. For a moment, you see, it has seemed to rest on oneself: as a result when you go away from the debate, it seems no stronger than that weak pillar.'

Lewis understood what it was like to know an argument like the back of your hand and win with it. But he also understood what it was like to still be haunted by lingering questions: What if I’ve missed something? Am I just playing intellectual games?”
Joshua D. Chatraw and Jack Carson

“The Bible is not a free-floating book of ageless wisdom, an interesting historical document, or a weapon that can be put in the service of any political goal. The Bible is a gift from God to the church, given for a particular purpose: to shape that community into the kind of people who can fulfill their commission to make disciples of all nations and steward God’s good creation, anticipating its final redemption.”
Kaitlyn Schiess, The Ballot and the Bible: How Scripture Has Been Used and Abused in American Politics and Where We Go from Here

“Even if not immediately, love will bring us justice, peace, and vindication, and when we open our eyes to the truth that love is wider than the river of grief, we can move toward the mirror and recognize ourselves again.”
Amber C. Haines and Seth Haines

“Sometimes we’ll find ourselves tied up in knots, and we’ll need the prayer and help of others to undo those knots. Sometimes we’ll be the instruments of undoing.”
Amber C. Haines and Seth Haines
