hall

over the coming days i intend to share some of my favourite quotations from a book i read by douglas john hall, the cross in our context

while it was not an easy book to read for the technical brilliance of the man ( in terms of his mastery of the language as well as his knowledge of scripture ), it was a venture i enjoyed; i intend to revisit ..

" .. no 'theology of glory' will be able to bring closure to the question " What are people for ?". For that anxiety, the only answer that will suffice is the participation in our lives of a God who shares the question, whose Presence gives us the courage of hope. "
