Quotable
Kyle Potter:
Being right is not what theology is for. This work of thinking and talking about God (which is the work of all the baptized!) must be done in a posture of humble listening to God and listening to one another. If theology is good for anything, it is knowing God better. But knowing God isn't a matter of knowing right things about God, but responding in obedience and love to the things we hear, and I am beginning to understand that this requires learning to speak with a certain tentativeness about this nearly unspeakable love.
Mr. Hanson:
I'm not interested in defending what I believe. What I am interested in is learning how to live it.

*oligopistos - Greek, noun, "one of little faith." This is where you eavesdrop on my scribblings about my life in the Kingdom, the Church, the world and the theological academy.
