The Gift of Marriage (1 Corinthians 7:10-17)

“Our salvation is ‘from outside ourselves’ (extra nos). I find salvation, not in my life story, but only in the story of Jesus Christ. What we call our life, our troubles, and our guilt is by no means the whole of reality; our life, our need, our guilt, and our deliverance are there in the Scriptures.” 

— Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Jacob's Return and Renaming (Genesis 35:1-15)

“Everybody worships. The only choice we get is what to worship. And the compelling reason for maybe choosing some sort of god or spiritual-type thing to worship… is that pretty much anything else you worship will eat you alive.”

—David Foster Wallace, “This is Water”
