wow lines from Brennan Manning, The Ragamuffin Gospel:

The breath of God will not be bottled and the gallivanting Spirit will not be campused.

In what ways am I content to store the gospel in its tidy place on the library shelf, tucked away in my tote bag, or contain it in the rules of a religion? (Manning actually made campus a verb!)

We forever remember our unfaithfulness as the moment of the triumph of grace and Christ's conquering love.

What shameful moments am I willing to claim as victory?
Does sharing my joy and gratitude have anything to do with revealing the sources of past misery or can I leave the pain behind to travel lightly?
