“Wie deel uitmaakt van een groep die een doel nastreeft, voelt zich opleven en blijkt plots tot veel meer in staat dan hij of zij voordien mogelijk achtte. Het leven wordt zinvoller en vreugdevoller. Maar net zoals bij genot schuilt ook hier hetzelfde addertje onder het gras. Elke vorm van zingeving kan ontsporen tot een monomane, dogmatische gekte, ten koste van zichzelf en anderen. Gezonde voeding promoten, met het accent op minder vlees en meer groenten, is zonder twijfel een goed idee. Slagers bedreigen is een stap te ver. Als zich inzetten voor een betere wereld betekent dat andersdenkenden geëlimineerd moeten worden, dan botsen we op een andere waanzin.”

“These are the days of the war, so rise up warriors of Christ! You, who are children of God, rise up! Take up your sword and fight a good fight! Our hope and our future are in Christ. Let that seed be planted upon your children. Our reward is not of this Earth, because the things of the world are temporary. Our reward is great; our reward is with our Father in heaven. This is the hope that we have in the future. So take a stand, finish strong in faith in Jesus. Put your hope in Jesus, for He holds our future.”

“Anyone who has gone through this process knows that every month is filled with anxiety, hope, tears, frustration, crushing disappointment, and hoards of negative tests. You learn not to hope and to expect a bad turn. Each month builds on every emotion. It can pry couples apart and drive people mentally into the ground. Luckily, we have used this season to lean into each other and become closer. We have been each other’s foundation to stand on and compass to follow when we didn’t know what to do. We have had to let go of the way we thought this would go and walk into unexpected paths.”

“South Carolina had thirteen lynchings last year, ten were charged with assault on white women, one with horse stealing and two with being impudent to white women. The first of the ten charged with rape, named John Peterson, was declared by the white woman in the case to be the wrong man, but the mob said a crime had been committed and somebody had to hang for it. So John Peterson, being the available ‘somebody,’ was hanged. At Columbia, South Carolina, July 30th, a similar charge was made, and three Negroes were hanged one after another because they said they wanted to be sure they got the right one.”
