"The older I get, the less I know, the more mysterious salvation becomes. I no longer feel compelled to nail it all down to reproducible soundbytes, Twitter-worthy missives. I am comfortable letting my mind suffer, yet letting my spirit rest. My God is good and worthy of all praise, and that is enough." Jen Hatmaker

"When you offer peace instead of division, when you offer faith instead of fear, when you offer someone a place at your table instead of keeping them out, because they're different or messy or wrong somehow, you represent the heart of Christ." Shauna Niequist

"So I wrote. I wrote as though God thought my voice mattered." Donald Miller
