Quote by Jen Hatmaker

“Our kids need spiritual mentors, and if a new language and posture will lead them, then we better hit our knees, pray for humility, and beg God to help us raise disciples that love Him beyond our homes. We prioritize transformation over methodology, because our rules have a shelf life but loyalty to Jesus does not. Let's keep the baby and change the bathwater.”

False humility was horrible, of course (vide Uriah Heap), but real humility, growing from within, was beautiful.”
