Faith may be encouraged by what has happened in the past, or what is thought to have happened in the past, but the only proof of it is in the future.

I see Christ as the incarnation of the piper who is calling us. He dances that shape and pattern which is at the heart of our reality.

Faith is the response to something which is calling us from the timeless part of our reality.

Faith is more basic than language or theology.

From that moment, I did not cease to pray to God that by his grace it might one day be permitted to me to learn Greek.

Over time, Benedictine monasteries appeared around the world, always with the same anomaly: brothers living in obedience, meditation, and faith just beneath the rush of the world.

I have to feel the audience. I enjoy that feeling of community. There's something sort of spiritual about it in a lot of ways. It's like we're all doing this together.

You must never give up and have faith in yourself.
