I live with the understanding that truth is bigger than any religion and the world is God's and everything in it.

We need a childlike trust that God is good... ultimately we are OK. That is a simple, beautiful pure thing that can be complicated ferociously by all sorts of intellectual categories.

One truth is that suffering raises profound questions with the universe. The other truth is that grace, gift and generosity also raise profound questions.

Christian is a great noun and a poor adjective

People have a view of a God who is terrible that they can't even imagine being loving or wanting anything to do with.

The Christian faith is mysterious to the core. It is about things and beings that ultimately can't be put into words. Language fails. And if we do definitively put God into words, we have at that very moment made God something God is not.

We often rush through the experiences that have the greatest shift.
