Sermon Notes
“When the unity between man and wife resembles the unity between Christ and the Church, then love and care and submission and respect become its mark.” –Markus Barth
“…at this point you’ve started to have an almost classic sort of Blind Faith in the older guys, a Blind Faith in them born not of zealotry or even belief but just of a chilled conviction that you have no faith whatsoever left in yourself(fn.135) and now if the older guys say Jump you ask them to hold their hand at the desired height, and now they’ve got you, and you’re free.”
[fn.135: A conviction common to all who Hang In with AA, after a while, and abstracted in the slogan ‘My Best Thinking Got Me Here.’] –David Foster Wallace
“Perfect submission, all is at rest. I in my Savior am happy and blest.” –Fanny Crosby
