Starting this thread to post interesting quotes concerning the Christian life, God, theology, religion, practices, etc. Add your own. And we can discuss how they impact us or question what they mean.

I will begin with the following (slightly altered) quote from Kieth Giles that can be found at this web address (don't read too much into the fact that I visit this particular web site):

"I don’t know about you, but if I am offered a choice between the [well defined] Jesus ... or the Jesus I have not fully understood yet, I would rather have the Jesus who is still bigger than my ability to understand, who defies my description, who challenges my preconceptions, and who takes my breath away. I would rather have the real Jesus, and I have to be willing to admit that the real Jesus may not fit into my convenient little box."
