faith
-
We are partners with God in bringing the dream into reality. Which means a lot of our work is about being a good host for the good work.

-
So many Christians want to pretend like being a Christian is normal or that Jesus himself is normal, but his works amaze and frighten.

Rather than think of mercy as something we’re supposed to do when something happens, we cast it as a way of being in the world.

It’s easy to read this gospel and think it is about Peter’s lack of faith. But that is reading it completely backwards.
