Everybody is following somebody. Everybody has faith in something and somebody. We are all believers. - Rob Bell

Why blame the dark for being dark? It is far more helpful to ask why the light isn’t as bright as it could be.

I saw how the Bible isn’t a book about how to get into heaven, it’s a library of poems and letters and stories about bringing heaven to earth now, about this world becoming more and more the place it should be. There is very, very little in the Bible about what happens when you die. That’s not what the writers were focused on. Their interest, again and again, is on how this world is arranged.

Because with every action, comment, conversation, we have the choice to invite Heaven or Hell to Earth.
