“Most of us, like the assembly line worker, have jobs that are too small for our spirit. Jobs are not big enough for people.
Nora Watson quoted by Studs Terkel2”
R. Paul Stevens, The Other Six Days: Vocation, Work, and Ministry in Biblical Perspective

“Third, theology is being done today by ordinary people. Like the character in Moliere's play who was surprised to learn that he was speaking prose all the time, the serious but non-clergy Christian may be surprised to find he or she is doing theology much of the time.J3 This `people' theology proliferates in films and books, as well as private conversations: vernacular theology, spur-of-the-moment theology, off-the-cuff theology and indigenous theology.
For example, my young granddaughter was told by her `atheist' friend that there is no God and no heaven. `Well', she said, `if there's no heaven, then what's the point of dying?' - pure theology!”
R. Paul Stevens, The Other Six Days: Vocation, Work, and Ministry in Biblical Perspective

“Many of Jesus' words emphasize that obedience is the organ of revelation.”
