“We do well to remember that the Bible has far more to say about how to live during the journey than about the ultimate destination.”

“Prayer is an inner journey, the ultimate destination of self-discovery rather than a desired destination.”

“Life has no plot. It is by far more interesting than anything you can say about it...”

“[The Bible] has to be interpreted. And if it isn’t interpreted, then it can’t be put into action. So if we are serious about following God, then we have to interpret the Bible. It is not possible to simply do what the Bible says. We must first make decisions about what it means at this time, in this place, for these people.”

“Our lives say much more about how we think than our books do. The theories we preach are not always the ones we actually believe. The theories we live are the ones we really believe.”

“Most of us lead far more meaningful lives than we know. Often finding meaning is not about doing things differently; it is about seeing familiar things in new ways. ”
