“Religion should not be respectable. Religion should be unpredictable, self-sacrificing, wild, wholly, generous beyond imagination. Religion should tear us down, send us soaring, but never keep us comfortable. Religion should send us out, make us face our past, but never keep us safe. Religion should help us die every day so the next day we may become God’s new creation. Religion should be frantically fun, extremely hard, and impossible to follow. Religion is jumping in the air and having faith that God will catch us, even when we get scrapes and bruises. This is Jesus’ way, a life of a Christian.”
