“I've got three kids. I worry about them but the gospel freed me and freed my wife. We are not trying to make our kids think that we're super spiritual or we've got it all together. They see mom and dad being real people. What they hear dad talking about at home is not different from what they see from dad [at church]. That won't guarantee that they'll avoid the whole PK, MK thing. But we are hopefully not contributing to what normally produces that crisis, which is pretending.” PeopleThinkingTryingDifferentRealWholeHomeKidsTogetherSpiritualThreeChurchTalkingWorryWifeProduceMomDadCrisisMy WifeHopefullyGuaranteesPretendingBeing RealContributingGuarantees ThatMom And DadHopefully Not Author:Tullian Tchividjian
“Fighting is spiritual. It appears to be physical from the layman's eyes. In my fights, I seemed to be angry and mad - all that stuff you saw me doing, the yelling and screaming and being mean in the ring - but I'm cool as a cucumber. I can hear everybody talking around me outside of the ring. I can see everybody. I know what is going on.” KnowsMeanI CanEyeSpiritualFightingStuffTalkingSawsAngryMadRingsBeing MeYellingLaymanCucumbersBeing MeanYelling And Screaming Author:Mike Tyson
“Intellectual culture seems to separate high art from low art. Low art is horror or pornography or anything that has a physical component to it and engages the reader on a visceral level and evokes a strong sympathetic reaction. High art is people driving in Volvos and talking a lot. I just don't want to keep those things separate. I think you can use visceral physical experiences to illustrate larger ideas, whether they're emotional or spiritual. I'm trying to not exclude high and low art or separate them.” PeopleThinkingWantTryingArtIdeasUseSeemsSpiritualCultureStrongLevelsTalkingEmotionalReaderHorrorIntellectualLowsArt IsDrivingReactionsPornographyComponentsSympatheticEvokeVisceralHighs And LowsHigh ArtVolvo Author:Chuck Palahniuk
“In the Lord's discourse on spiritual nourishment, we hear Him says: "Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life." (John 6:27). He then continued by talking about the true bread from Heaven the bread of God, and the bread of life. (John 6:32-35). Here He appeals to the soul for its nourishment and our thoughts to the spiritual way so as not to occupy our minds with the body and its needs.” WayNeedsMindSoulBodySpiritualHeavenTalkingLordLaborEndureBreadAppealsOur ThoughtsDiscourseEverlastingNourishmentFastingEverlasting LifeBread Of LifeSpiritual Nourishment Author:Pope Shenouda III of Alexandria
“Most of us have developed a fairly extensive vocabulary for describing pain, as though the journal were a doctor requiring much detail to make the correct diagnosis. The roundness of the spiritual journey cannot be expressed without developing an equally extensive vocabulary for talking to ourselves and others about the nature of wonder, joy, ecstasy, love, transfiguration.” PainSpiritualJoyTalkingWonderJourneyDoctorsDetailsDevelopingEcstasyJournalVocabularyDescribingDiagnosisSpiritual JourneyJournalingTransfiguration Book:Life's Companion: Journal Writing as a Spiritual Quest Source: Life's Companion: Journal Writing as a Spiritual Quest
“I was kind of feeling a spiritual need all those years. My wife Geraldine and I went to an Episcopalian Church for a while. Oh, it just seemed very political to me that a guy so liberal was talking about opposing the war in Vietnam and I didn't want to hear that when I went to church. I wanted something spiritual.” WantNeedsYearsKindWarFeelingsWantedSpiritualPoliticalGuyChurchTalkingWifeMy WifeVietnamOpposingEpiscopalians Author:Robert Novak
