church boats


"Most church boats don't like to be rocked;
they prefer to lie at anchor rather than go places in stormy seas.
But that's because we Christians view the church as the object of our love
instead of the subject and instrument of God's.
Faith cannot be passive, it has to go forth -
to assault the conscience, excite the imagination.
Faith fans the flames of creativity altogether as much
as it banks the fires of sin."  - William Sloane Coffin
