Quotes from the same author
When we sin and mess up our lives, we find that God doesn't go off and leave us- he enters into our trouble and saves us.

Every call to worship is a call into the Real World.... I encounter such constant and widespread lying about reality each day and meet with such skilled and systematic distortion of the truth that I'm always in danger of losing my grip on reality.

The reality is that baptism, not Myers-Briggs, defines who I am.

For they are, as he shows us, the instruments of joy, the way into mature Christian spirituality and abundant life.
