"I'm discovering that a spiritual journey is a lot like a poem.  You don't merely recite a poem, or analyze it intellectually.  You dance it, sing it, cry it, feel it on your skin and in your bones.
You move with it and feel its caress.  It falls on you like a teardrop or wraps around you like a smile.  It lives in the heart and the body as well as the spirit and the head."

                                                                                             ~ Sue Monk Kidd

"I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.  For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: 'The righteous will live by faith."
