"Finished Chapters 4 and 5. I finished Chapter 4 a few days ago and don't remember much of it. Chapter 5 had the Ancillary and Seivarden at the camp. Strigan came back from their hiding spot and questioned the Ancillary. After some back and forth, the Ancillary went back to sleep. The next day, the Ancillary told Seivarden to make breakfast. He refused and the Ancillary knocked him out" — 14 hours, 59 min ago

"Finished Chapter 8. Billy needed a coon hide to train his dogs. His grandpa told him to bore a hole in a log and put something shiny in it, then put nails at a slant to catch the coon's paw. It took a week but Billy finally caught one. He used the hide to train his dogs. He taught them everything he knew. A few days before hunting season started he stopped training to let the dogs rest." — 6 hours, 56 min ago

The proper context for interpreting the Bible is the context of the biblical writers—the context that produced the Bible.
“If God worked through one woman to bring redemption, how is it that anyone can argue that God does not go on working through other women as well?”

“Jesus does not want to be the only perfect human being at the expense of humankind. He does not want, as the only guiltless one, to ignore a humanity that is being destroyed by its guilt; he does not want some kind of human ideal to triumph over the ruins of a wrecked humanity.”

“But you must remember that, while the Bible was written for us, it wasn’t written to us.”

“we should not be overly shocked and disillusioned when our leaders are revealed as having clay feet. Nor should we be blasé and shrug. If we are to trust God as our only true hope for social order and peace, we must avoid either adulatory naïveté or bitter cynicism about human leaders.”

“Children are meant to grow up, and not to become Peter Pans. Not to lose innocence and wonder, but to proceed on the appointed journey: that journey upon which it is certainly not better to travel hopefully than to arrive, though we must travel hopefully if we are to arrive.”
