Christianity is the only religion whose God bears the scars of evil.

Calling is not only a matter of being and doing what we are but also of becoming what we are not yet but are called by God to be.

To come to faith on the basis of experience alone is unwise, though not so foolish as to reject faith altogether because of lack of experience ... the quality of a Christian's experience depends on the quality of his faith, just as the quality of his faith depends in turn on the quality of his understanding of God's truth.

In working out our callings, we are to perform for one audience, the audience of One.

In other words, we are never freer than when we become most ourselves, most human, most just, most excellent, and the like.

Atheism thrives on bad religion.

We human beings are never happier than when we are expressing the deepest gifts that are truly us.
