Made For Spirituality

Please click the metal quote logo so view many more quotes on iChristian

“Made for spirituality, we wallow in introspection. Made for joy, we settle for pleasure. Made for justice, we clamor for vengeance. Made for relationship, we insist on our own way. Made for beauty, we are satisfied with sentiment. But new creation has already begun. The sun has begun to rise. Christians are called to leave behind, in the tomb of Jesus Christ, all that belongs to the brokenness and incompleteness of the present world … That, quite simply, is what it means to be Christian: to follow Jesus Christ into the new world, God’s new world, which he has thrown open before us.”

    You have a new, cleaner, look since I was here last, Steve. I like it 🙂 Sorry I’m such an infrequent visitor. I agree with your sentiments but have too little time to settle in and read. Best wishes and thanks for your support. 🙂

    Love it! (if there is one theologian we need to take seriously in our time, it is N.T. Wright) Now I just have to live it…
