- God

- Nov 07, 2020
Naked need is the occasion for God's giving, not a need adorned with the clean, elegant robes of respectability and good works.
- Sins

- Nov 07, 2020
There are no unforgivable sins.
- Heart
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If I say, 'I forgive you,' I have implicitly said you have done something wrong to me. But what forgiveness is at its heart is both saying that justice has been violated and not letting that violation count against the offender.
- God
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I do believe that Muslims and Christians and Jews pray to the same God. And yet they understand who God is in significantly different ways.
- Marriage
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In a way, fraud in business is no different from infidelity in marriage or plagiarism in scholarly work. Even people committed to high moral standards succumb.
- Faith

Faith idles when character shrivels.
- God
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
For Christian faith not to be idle in the world, the work of doctors and garbage collectors, business executives and artists, stay-at-home moms or dads and scientists needs to be inserted into God's story with the world. That story needs to provide the most basic rules by which the game in all these spheres is played.
- Faith
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
For Christians, faith is a precious good, the most valuable personal and social resource. When it is left untapped, the common good suffers - not just the particular interests of Christians.
- Done
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The significance of the crucifixion is not only what God does for us; consistently throughout the New Testament the crucifixion is portrayed as the pattern that we are to follow. It is a model of social behavior toward the other as well as a statement about what God has done for us.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Rules help govern and steer a relationship along, so they're good things. But they become bad things when they become the narrow gate though which the relationship must always pass. When this happens, the rules become the basis for the relationship and, in a sense, become a substitute for the relationship.
- Grow
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In good relationships, we are happy to grow as the other person becomes part of us and who we are.
- Lived
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
For many Americans, Osama bin Laden is the paradigmatic Muslim, an absurd conviction for anyone who has lived with Muslims.
- Injustice
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Prejudice is a form of untruthfulness, and untruthfulness is an insidious form of injustice.
- Love
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I don't think we need to agree with anyone in order to love the person. The command for Christians to love the other person, to be benevolent and beneficent toward them, is independent of what the other believes.
- Living
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Some of the worst violence in the world today between estranged religious and ethnic groups happens not on the battlefields. It happens smack in the middle of living rooms and between people who share a lot, who have a lot in common.
- Being
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Some Jews and Muslims accuse Christians of being idolatrous for believing in the Trinity. My response to both groups is that they fundamentally misunderstand the Christian understanding of the Trinity.

- Nov 07, 2020
If somebody postulates the existence of more than one god, I would have to say we don't worship the same god. If somebody says that God is basically one with the world, I would also have to say we don't worship the same god.
- Eyes
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
For any victim, particularly us Americans, it is difficult to see ourselves through the eyes of our offender. But for any victim it is the most salutary thing to do.
- Day
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Christians believe that there will be a Judgment Day at the end. And it is my belief that on that day justice will be done and there will be a reconciliation between those who have profoundly injured one another takes place.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Muslims and Christians can work together to depose dictators and assert the power of the people. We've seen it happen on the Tahrir Square in Cairo during the 2011 revolution in Egypt, with devout Muslims and Coptic Christians protesting side by side.
- Humanity
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Christianity and Islam are today the most numerous and fastest growing religions globally. Together they encompass more than half of humanity. Consequence: both are here to stay.
- Effective Way
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There is no more effective way to radicalize American Muslim youth than for political leaders to make public displays of prejudice against all Muslims. Suspicion will undermine their sense of identification with America and alienate some from both the culture and from politics.
