Acts 2:42-47
Chris Breslin
“After I gazed for a long time at Rublev’s Trinity these words spoke to me with new power. ‘Praying at all times’ has come to mean ‘dwelling in the house of God all the days of our lives.’ ‘Surviving all that is going to happen’ now tells me that I no longer need to be a victim of the fear, hatred, and violence that rule the world.” -Henri Nouwen
“If all we have is temple we tend to get fat (not burning off enough calories on mission), while if all we have is oikos we tend to get faint (too much energy expenditure with not enough nourishment). But if we can embrace both temple and oikos, we become fit (being nourished properly for the task of mission).” –Ben Sternke quoting Paul Maconochie
“How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.” -Annie Dillard
