quote-of-the-day

“What we often do is reverse the creative process that God initated. We start with different cultural backgrounds and skin colors and nationalities, and it’s only when we look past these thinks that we are able to get to what we have in common— that we are all fellow image-bearers with the shared task of caring for God’s creation. We get it all backward. We see all the differences first, and only later, maybe, do we begin to see the similarities.”
--Rob Bell, “Sex God”

(Note: Although usually I have, I haven't actually read this book or anything else by Rob Bell. Makes me want to though.)
