The biblical writers assumed many things about reality that modern, Western people do not assume because we've been conditioned by our cultures to assume otherwise.

Before saying 'I disagree' be sure you can say 'I understand.'

We're creatures, so we have limits.

Knowledge has come to be defined as what can be proven by secular evidence and arguments.

Only God has no limits (except those he voluntarily imposes on himself). The mantra "no limits" is actually a call to idolatry.

As the perfect parent, God suffers emotional pain when his creatures, created in his own image and likeness, rebel against him and do evil instead of good.

Humanism cannot survive on a purely secular platform.

To some of us, raised and trained in allowing the Bible to absorb the world (that is, to "see" all of reality through the biblical story), the Bible is quite clear about all really important matters.

Human beings are special, of higher dignity and worth than other animals, because they're created in God's own image and likeness. It's actually true humanism.

We're created in God's image, but our souls or spirits are not offshoots of God's own Spirit - as New Age teachers would have us believe.

The idea of having no limits, either through education or money or possessions or power, is radically alien to everything the Bible assumes and says.

If one wants to be loved and return it full score dagger of silence closes the door.

Live happy and enjoy your journey. Life is too short to not enjoy the ride ! Perspective really matters. Worry never solves any problems. Have belly laughs and chuckles instead

Know from the rivers in clefts and in crevices: those in small channels flow noisily, the great flow silent. Whatever's not full makes noise. Whatever is full is quiet.

Goon Squad' took about three years to write and that's the short end. My second novel, 'Look at Me,' took six years.

Like everybody and trust no one.

We can fall, but in the end we fall into God's hands, and God's hands are good hands.

When I start a story, I don't know where it's going.

Any type of humor can be transferred to the screen, as long as there's clarity. The audience wants to know just what they're supposed to be feeling, when they're supposed to laugh.
