“The way of Jesus cannot be imposed or mapped — it requires an active participation in
following Jesus as he leads us through sometimes strange and unfamiliar territory,
in circumstances that become clear only in the hesitations and questionings,
in the pauses and reflections where we engage in prayerful conversation
with one another and with him.”
― Eugene Peterson, 
born on this day

“The US is experiencing a deep epistemic breach, a split not just in what we value
or want, but in who we trust, how we come to know things, and what we believe
we know — what we believe exists, is true, has happened and is happening.”
– David Roberts
