The Moment The Organic Unity Of Belief And Behaviour Is Damaged In Any Way, We Are Incapable Of Living Out The Full Humanity For Which We Were Created.

That's The Whole Spiritual Life. It's Learning How To Die. And As You Learn How To Die, You Start Losing All Your Illusions, And You Start Being Capable Now Of True Intimacy And Love.

When We Submit Our Lives To What We Read In Scripture, We Find That We Are Not Being Led To See God In Our Stories But Our Stories In God's. God Is The Larger Context And Plot In Which Our Stories Find Themselves.
