“In the United States, where it has become almost impossible to use "liberal" in the sense in which I have used it, the term "libertarian" has been used instead. It may be the answer; but for my part I find it singularly unattractive. For my taste it carries too much the flavor of a manufactured term and of a substitute. What I should want is a word which describes the party of life, the party that favors free growth and spontaneous evolution. But I have racked my brain unsuccessfully to find a descriptive term which commends itself.” WantShouldMayHas BeensStatesUseUsedPoliticsGrowthTermAnswersUnitedPartyBrainUnited StatesToo MuchImpossibleEvolutionTasteLibertarianFavorsCarrieSubstitutesSpontaneousFlavorUnattractive Author:Friedrich August von Hayek

What an absurdity to think that we could ever bargain with God, as if there were anything we could put on the table. Nothing we can do would ever earn his favor. Yet all is ours for free. And the cross reveals his willingness to forgive not just once, but over and over and over again. How can we repay such extravagant, generous love? We cannot and need not, and the heart's only answer is gratitude.” IfsThinkingNeedsHeartEndsDoneChristianLife IsCan DoAnswersGratitudeCrossesTablesForgivingFavorsChristian LifeGenerousWillingnessAbsurdityBargainsPonderingExtravagantGenerous Love Author:Rebecca Pippert
