some deep thoughts

A man of the world among ascetics, and an ascetic among men of the world.

-T.S. Eliot, describing Blase Pascal and his trips to the monastery

 

I always thought of Rich (Mullins) as being a little less "caught" than the rest of us. He was the furthest thing from a saint and the closest thing to a true believer that I knew.

Christianity so focused on redemption it has forgotten creation, so focused in heaven it has forgotten here and now and the qualitative life of God's kingdom, which Jesus said has begun on earth. -Dick Staub
