“It is time to become culturally aware, intellectually sound, and spiritually alert. I am interested in asking who has a song not about bringing art into the safety of the church but about taking it into the streets — and into the refugee camps, prisons and hovels? Where are the laments and the dirges as we stand beside those who are suffering? How do we ‘groan’ with all of creation about this polluted planet? And where are the victory marches and the parades on the streets — or the rooftops — that declare the goodness of God with joyous shouts and a sense of play?” – Betty Spackman, A Profound Weakness

Whew…powerful words and a powerful reminder. The Gospel is not meant for the safety of the church, it is meant for those who truly need it.

Keep up the great quotes to ponder.
