Quote by Tish Harrison Warren

“The future orientation of Christian time reminds us that we are people on the way. It allows us to live in the present at an alternative people, waiting for what is to come, but never giving up on our telos. We are never quite comfortable. We seek justice, practice mercy, and herald the kingdom come.”
