You want Theology

Theology doesn't excite me.

I think the moment you capture a theology, you kill it.

But I'm on my way to a seminary education/experience, and I interact with a lot people who get excited about theology. The kind of people who would rather sit in a room with a 500 year old book than a person with AIDS. Who would rather decide if and exactly how AIDS is a sin than to hold someone who is suffering with the disease and pray with them.

That said, I do realize that theology is a necessary part of living in the Kingdom. And so there are many times that someone says something about the Kingdom that makes my heart skip a beat. Like seeing someone you think you know, but when you approach them and get closer  you realize they are not who you thought they were. Even the words that paint the best picture of who God is - his reasons for loving us and calling us to love others - are still only a poor reflection of what we will one day know of God and his love.

With that said, I present to you a few words spoken by a brother in Christ that make my heart skip a beat:
