Heaven and Earth Quotes

“Even though you are sometimes unloving, unlovable, and often unbearable, the church, by baptism, promises to put up with you to the end and, at your end, relights the Baptism Candle, posting it by your coffin, as we give you back to the God who gave you to us.”
― William H. Willimon, Heaven and Earth: Advent and the Incarnation
