“The mystery of one’s relationship to God cannot be captured in proposition form and passed directly from one human being to another — not even if the sermon is impeccably logical and flawlessly delivered. It must be wrapped, like faith itself, in the paradoxical distance and intimacy that stories provide, in the grandeur of myth, the lilt of songs, the memory of legend, and the seductive disorientation of parables.” — Robin R. Meyers
