Louie Giglio
“God is infinitely creative—that means His creativity has no end. And God shows His creativity in you. You began as a blank page in His book, and He began writing your story before you were even born. It’s going to be a great one! Don’t believe it? Just check out some of the amazing stories He’s already written for “ordinary” people just like you—David knocking out Goliath, Daniel napping with lions, and Esther saving her people. God’s got an amazing story in the works for you—just wait and see!”
Louie Giglio, Indescribable: 100 Devotions About God and Science

“Sealing fish and a few other aromatic ingredients in a parchment paper package is one of the best ways to achieve perfectly cooked white fish with minimal work. And it always makes an impression when the packages are snipped open at the table, revealing the lovely fish and vegetables inside and releasing their amazing aroma. You need only parchment and kitchen string to form the packages and you can serve this with your favorite seasoned rice.”
Joanna Gaines, Magnolia Table: A Collection of Recipes for Gathering

“Have you ever seen workers build a brick building? They don’t just stack the bricks on top of each other. They need some sort of glue to hold all those bricks together. The glue for bricks is called mortar. In the same way, your body is made up of 37.2 trillion little bricks called cells. And like a building, those cells need some sort of glue to hold them all together. The glue for cells is called laminin. Laminin holds your body together. The thing that’s even more amazing about laminin is what it looks like. When you take a peek at laminin (and you’ll need an electron microscope to see it), it looks like . . . a cross.”

Stephan Bauman
“Commenting on these passages, Mark Gornik, a theologian, pastor, and community developer in the United States, says, “Here then from both James and Paul is a central witness drawn from all of Scripture: God has sovereignly chosen to work in the world by beginning with the weak who are on the ‘outside,’ not the powerful who are on the ‘inside.’”9 The claim here is not that the poor are inherently more righteous or sanctified than the rich. There is no place in the Bible that indicates that poverty is a desirable state or that material things are evil. In fact, wealth is viewed as a gift from God. The point is simply that, for His own glory, God has chosen to reveal His kingdom in the place where the world, in all of its pride, would least expect it, among the foolish, the weak, the lowly, and the despised.”
Stephan Bauman, Seeking Refuge: On the Shores of the Global Refugees Crisis

D.A. Carson
“However hard some things are to understand, it is never helpful to start picking and choosing biblical truths we find congenial, as if the Bible is an open-shelved supermarket where we are at perfect liberty to choose only the chocolate bars. For the Christian, it is God's Word, and it is not negotiable. What answers we find may not be exhaustive, but they give us the God who is there, and who gives us some measure of comfort and assurance. The alternative is a god we manufacture, and who provides no comfort at all. Whatever comfort we feel is self-delusion, and it will be stripped away at the end when we give an account to the God who has spoken to us, not only in Scripture, but supremely in his Son Jesus Christ.”
D.A. Carson, How Long, O Lord?: Reflections on Suffering and Evil
