“ But herein is the Bible itself greatly wronged. It nowhere lays claim to be regarded as the Word, the Way, the Truth. The Bible leads us to Jesus, the inexhaustible, the ever unfolding Revelation of God. It is Christ ‘in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge,’ not the Bible, save as leading to Him. George MacDonald, “The Word,” in George MacDonald, ed. C. S. Lewis (New York: Harper Collins, 2001), 6.  (via chary)

“ One adolescent’s breath of fresh air is another’s ghetto. Any given wider world is still just one more place, even if what it’s slightly wider or slightly more prestigious circle of interpreters talk about is a better access to “universality. John H Yoder, The Priestly Kingdom: Social Ethics as Gospel

Loved worshipping today with @IncarnationDFW. Having @AldersgateSF withdrawals though.



Had the rare pleasure of worshipping with #KleinUMC this morning. I’m proud to have come from a community of such great Christian witnesses.
