“On Christian campuses, we believe that we should all get along because we are brothers and sisters. But, we forget that that only comes through uncomfortable conversations.” @Kathryn_Ecklund

[The Biola Hour @TheBiolaHour]

“For a dynamic or a relationship to be mutually equal, the person who has more power has to give some of that up.” @Kathryn_Ecklund

[The Biola Hour @TheBiolaHour]

“We have largely fallen into a pseudo-niceness within Christian communities that is largely driven by fear.” @Kathryn_Ecklund

[The Biola Hour @TheBiolaHour]

“If diversity is going to be impacted, it’s got to be by us. It’s got to be by the Christian community.” @Kathryn_Ecklund

"How do you pray for your friend? Pray that they would cling to Jesus, whether your friend is straight, bi, gay - if your friend is human, pray that they seek Jesus" -@PrestonSprinkle

[The Biola Hour @TheBiolaHour]

"Straight, conservative Christians need to listen to the conversation of LGBTQ for the sake of understanding, period. Understanding of their story as an image bearing human being. Always be an eager ear for others' stories" -@PrestonSprinkle

[The Biola Hour @TheBiolaHour]

"God makes people and he creates them in his image and they are beautiful and worthy in his eyes. He looks down and delights in us." -@PrestonSprinkle

“When you look at the front of a tapestry, it’s beautiful. A beautiful work of art! But on the backside there’s a cacophony of tangled thread. That’s what we see on this side of eternity. God is working all things for the good, but that can be hard to see here.”

[The Biola Hour @TheBiolaHour]

“If you’re wrestling with doubt, know you’re not alone. Doubt is apart of the journey and it’s an invitation from God to dive deeper, become more vulnerable, gritty and raw. Lean into that.”

“Listening to people while I’m outside of my job, so I’m aware of certain issues, is a big way of gaining diverse perspectives on issues. But, a lot of it is simply inviting them to the table”
