    Quotables

    • “We have to understand the difference between someone who disagrees with us, and someone who may be actually doing evil. And, and sometimes, we can actually be under the influence, uh, and so engrossed in a particular cultural issue or whatnot, where we view the other side as evil.”
  • If we try to live in his reality, it's disruptive to our current status. I feel like that's such a massive thing. I feel like embracing, following Jesus, if we really wanna become apprentices of Jesus, we have to be ready for that disruption.
  • “On Sunday, you worded it as both scary and a beautiful thing. Cause I think you said if your will is bent away from the way of Jesus, he'll give you what you will, but it's beautiful because he'll always welcome you back.”
