“Departures could be delightful. Pregnant with possibility. Perhaps this urge had something to do with having witnessed a very eccentric Professor father who would be so preoccupied with his internal life, these daily chores and routines just existed in the margins. One did not have to feed them, they had to feed one’s life- a life that added up to being more than a succession of everyday banal routines.”

“It strikes me that the people who crowded around to help midwife St. Lydia's into being all had something in common. Each had the gift of seeing something that was coming, but had not yet arrived. Rachel could take a scrap of possibility--the rope that hung limp from a bucket--and notice that it was beautiful. Pastor Phil had the same gift, only he saw possibility in people. He was the kind of pastor who saw something true about you before you could see it yourself... This capacity--in an artist, a pastor, a parent, a prophet--is deeply tied to the work of God.”

“The 'world-as-it-is,' as activists call it, is rife with possibility. It's ready to break open into the world-as-it-should-be. Part of crossing over the barrier is acting like we're already there. This is why protesting and working for change are not the only practices of revolution. We must dance, sing, cook, eat, and meet one another in love. Many call it foolishness, but we are cracking open the tomb and letting God's world break in.”
