“To be perfectly honest, finitude and the goodness of our limits doesn’t tend to come to us unless it’s forced on us for various reasons. So I do think I was only able to finally write what I wanted to about the goodness of creation after I had written about lament and sin and brokenness.”
“No one’s going to fight for the pastor to rest. And this gets difficult and it sounds selfish, but for the good of your congregation, you need to set aside time to be unproductive.”
