Quote for the Day

…we who serve an entirely indoor God have lost a great part of our faith. We must break through the cold, hard walls of our institutionalized worship and reach for the soft, warm reality of God that is found out of doors. It is impossible to imprison God within walls of a church and yet claim that Christianity brings light, growth and life. We need to open the windows of our souls to admit God’s creative energy.
Our inside God is too small. We need to view him through the universe he created…

— Calvin Miller, The Path of Celtic Prayer
