Jesus is bigger than any one religion. He didn't come to start a new religion, and he continually disrupted whatever conventions or systems or establishments that existed in his day. He will always transcend whatever cages and labels are created to contain and name him, especially the one called "Christianity.

I'm interested in painting the most beautifully compelling pictures and images and metaphors and stories and explanations possible that will put Jesus in language for a world that desperately needs to hear it.

Enjoy mystery and speculation, but don't drift into dogma.

No one has the last word other than God.

There are moments when we have to return to our roots.

The lesson that has been hardest for me to learn: there is nothing to prove.

I think that grace and love always rattle people.
