I like to say that I'm tracing the intersection between big ideas and human experience, between theology and real life.

Fear usually looks like anger.

You are not going to be perfect every day. It's about turning up the next day and doing it again.

If we can't face our losses, we can't be present either fully to everything that is. When people have cut off or not made peace with some part of themselves, they miss out on other aspects of life.

Tolerance is not really a lived virtue; it's more of a cerebral ascent.

Intelligence alone does not get us where we need to go or even necessarily where we want to go. For that, the human creature must exercise harder-won capacities of wisdom, and wise action.

I make no apologies for the fact that I have a religious life of my own. I'm speaking as a Christian because I'm speaking as myself.

Depression can kill you. It can also be a spiritually enriching experience. It's really an important part of my theology now and my spirituality that life is not perfect, and I grew up wanting it to be and thinking that if it wasn't, I could make it that way, and I had to acknowledge that I had all kinds of flaws and sadnesses and problems.

Kindness is an everyday byproduct of all the great virtues.
