"So, it's true after all: God is out to get you! Just like the sandwich-board evangelists have always said...But it’s not with the closed fist of anger and punishment. God arrives with an invitation in hand. God invites you to the party. God welcomes you to the table. At least that’s the kind of God revealed to us by Jesus. I don’t know where we got this other God who is so hateful and unkind; this God so retrograde and primitive, this God who is more cruel and sadistic than any human being who has ever existed. The only God is I know is the God revealed by Jesus of Nazareth: A God who is good! A God, not too good to be true, but a God so good, it just has to be true!" (See Luke 14)
