“I am what I love, and I will love you like Jesus, because of Jesus, through the strength of Jesus. I will love when I'm not loved back. I will love when I'm hurt and disappointed and betrayed and inconvenienced and rejected. I simply will love. No expectations, no conditions, no demands.”
― Ann Voskamp, The Broken Way: A Daring Path into the Abundant Life

“Maybe the love gets in easier right where the heart's broke open.”
― Ann Voskamp, The Broken Way: A Daring Path into the Abundant Life

“Learning the art of living is learning the art of giving...Is there any word more powerful than giving? Thanksgiving, forgiving, care-giving, life-giving. Everything that matters in living comes from giving.”
― Ann Voskamp, The Broken Way: A Daring Path into the Abundant Life

“Not 'I am finished,' but 'it is finished.' His supreme sacrifice was over. His mighty work of redemption was done. He came to earth to do the will of His Father, and He had accomplished that...By His death Jesus abolished the ceremonial Law and all its obligations, stamping them *paid in full*.”
― Liz Curtis Higgs, The Women of Easter: Encounter the Savior with Mary of Bethany, Mary of Nazareth, and Mary Magdalene
