"In too many instances we have settled for a world of our own shaping that is shaping up to be in terrible shape."
Society
"If I am sufficiently brave to extract the cancer of fear, I have effectively gutted my conviction that what stands before me is impossible."
Courage
"To embrace the message of Christmas is to throw off my hedonistic rebellion and bow before the chafing reality that I can't save myself, and in that very act to be suddenly taken aback in that I've stumbled upon the very freedom I've longed for in the very place I'd least expected it."
Freedom
"I am always trying to figure God out so that I can figure Him in. But after a while I figure that I should just let God be God, and figure that He'll figure it all out anyway."
Faith
"God chose to deliberately venture into and intentionally occupy depths far below and infinitely beyond that which any human has ever descended, and then to raise Himself back up to glory from those horridly dark places. And I pray that we never miss the fact that Christmas is God's invitation for us to join Him in the rising."
Faith
"I have both the violent turbulence of the storm and the quiet promises of God in the storm. And what I must work to remember is that something is not necessarily stronger simply because it's louder."
Strength
"The greatest imagination in all of existence is one that would be able to take 'nothing' and imagine 'something' from 'nothing.' And that is God."
Creation
"I would much prefer to enlarge your life by giving you the gift of my life, rather than gifting your life to material obesity with frivolous trinkets."
Generosity
"We have a choice. We can be jaded by what we've lost, or joyous over what that thing had accomplished while we had it."
Perspective
"We can't even remotely fathom that whatever is ending for us is always more than an ending."

"Sure. You want to be touched, inspired and made to feel alive. But a relationship is like a bridge where you meet other people half-way. That means if you want to be touched, inspired and made to feel alive, you have to be touching, inspiring and bring the fire of your aliveness to the union of your companionship."

"In Tereza's eyes, books were the emblems of a secret brotherhood. For she had but a single weapon against the world of crudity surrounding her: the novels. She had read any number of them, from Fielding to Thomas Mann. They not only offered the possibility of an imaginary escape from a life she found unsatisfying; they also had a meaning for her as physical objects: she loved to walk down the street with a book under her arm. It had the same significance for her as an elegant cane from the dandy a century ago. It differentiated her from others."
