But God is bigger than any wall. God is bigger than any religion. God is bigger than any worldview. God is bigger than the Christian faith. - Rob Bell
I'm in the incredibly difficult process of writing an application for the Governor's School for Humanities. I've had to write an essay about why I want it. Made me think of religion. I'm also reading a book titled Velvet Elvis. It's amazing. I love it. It says so much about Christianity and what others say. The new perspective that it offers makes me reel when I read it. I have to read it over to understand it. It's amazing. It's so incredibly profound. The way I looked at Christianity was so different yesterday than now. I am in love with my God now. So in love. But the thing of it is, not only do I have a different way to view things, but I have learned. And so it has changed my perspective of Him. I've learned different things about the history of the people who talked with my God. I'm able to better understand the circumstances under which the authors were writing. And I love it!
