think through them
Thursday, February 21st, 2008“My journey of faith must be personal in the sense that I struggle intellectually with issues that cut close to the heart of my identity. As a member of the human race, a citizen of a broken world, and a follower of Jesus Christ, I can not hang up my commitments, desires, rebellions, resignations, and uncertainties like a coat on a coat rack before entering my pursuit of answers, to be taken up and put on when the work of the day is over. How can I abstract from my commitments, desires, rebellions, resignations, and uncertainties? I must think through them, with as much rigor as I can muster.”
- Miroslav Volf, Exclusion and Embrace
