In some sense every parent does love their children. But some parents are too broken to love them well& others are barely able to love them at all.

I think my books give people a language to have a conversation about God that's not religious. There isn't enough new literature that brings the conversation of God into a modern context. I love the Bible, but in the West we've analyzed it until it fits into a structure of control. We need more new stories. We need different ways of looking at things, and I think it's coming.

True love never forces.

Living unloved is like clipping a bird's wings and removing its ability to fly.

when I live in you, then together we can live through everything that happens to you.

If anything matters, then everything matters.

The arrival of the unforeseen reveals the depths of one's heart.
