“the success of biblical interpretation depends a great deal on whether we want to listen to God or merely tell him what he ought to say. For it is only by listening to God - to what he says in all of Scripture, and through all avenues by which he might speak, such as the voices of the Spirit and of creation -that we can finally arrive at the best understanding of how the Spirit is directing us to love God and our neighbor.”

“intellectual and spiritual health requires that we respect the limits of human knowledge and rationality. We must learn how to embrace mystery.”
