Christianity has basically communicated to men that the reason God put you on this Earth is to be a good boy. Mind your manners, be a nice guy. That's soul killing!

Faith looks back and draws courage; hope looks ahead, and keeps desire alive.

God endowed you with a glory when he created you, a glory so deep and mythic that all creation pales in comparison.

The true story of every person in this world is not the story you see, the external story. The true story of each person is the journey of his or her heart.

Contentment can only happen as we increase desire, let it run itself out towar its fulfilment, and carry us along with it.

Have you thought about His (God) handling of the gospel? God needs to get a message out to the human race, without which they will perish...foreve r. What's the plan? First, He starts with the most unlikely group ever: a couple of prostitutes, a few fishermen with no better than a second-grade education, a tax collector. Then, he passes the ball to us. Unbelievable.

Adventure, with all its requisite danger and wildness, is a deeply spiritual longing written into the soul of man.
