“spiritual formation is precisely formation in this life and of this life from above.”

“Theological books like to use the word reign for it and that is fitting, but reign doesn’t mean very much to ordinary people. Rule might be a substitute, but it is more informative to say that the kingdom is God in action.”
― Alan Andrews, The Kingdom Life: A Practical Theology of Discipleship and Spiritual Formation

“The first question St. Anthony asked Jesus was, “Why didn’t You come sooner?” And Jesus replied, “I wanted to see how you would do.”[2] Now, actually, that is a biblical theme. God did it with Abraham (see Genesis 22:12) and with the Israelites in the wilderness (see Deuteronomy 8:2), for example. Jesus did this with the disciples (see Mark 6:37,48-51). You can be sure He will do it with you and me. It is indispensable to our growth in grace.”
