At the end of the day, when I am lying in bed and I know the chances of any of our theology being exactly right are a million to one, I need to know that God has things figured out, that if my math is wrong we are still going to be okay. And wonder is that feeling we get when we let go of our silly answers, our mapped out rules that we want God to follow. I don't think there is any better worship than wonder.

When we talk about the decline of the American family, I think we have to go back to the Industrial Revolution.

It blew my mind that what I was thinking was actually applicable to people's lives, and it certainly revolutionized family.

Telling the truth is the slow, mundane, difficult route to a meaningful life. Anything else is cheating.

Passion about nothing is like pouring gasoline in a car without wheels. It isn't going to lead anybody anywhere.

Dying for something is easy because it is associated with glory. Living for something is the hard thing. Living for something extends beyond fashion, glory, or recognition. We live for what we believe.

The most important thing that happens within Christian spirituality is when a person falls in love with Jesus.
