Yesterday Jenny preached on the book of Job and shared the following quote. I want to share it with you in written form this morning:
Arguing with God is an act of deep faith—deeper, perhaps, than a passive acceptance of whatever happens as God’s will, or a carefully articulated theological rationalization for why things are. — J. S. Randolph Harris [1]
[1] J. S. Randolph Harris, “Job 23:1-9, 16-17: Homiletical Perspective,” in Feasting on the Word: Preaching the Revised Common Lectionary, ed. David L. Bartlett and Barbara Brown Taylor, vol. 4, Year B (Louisville, Kentucky: Westminster John Knox Press, 2009), 151.
