"Maybe it’s because we haven’t prepared ourselves to connect with the whole story of the Gospel. Cause we just want to get to the good stuff. We want to hurry up and get to the good news of Easter Sunday. We don’t want to spend too much time lingering in the pain of Good Friday."
"Since the 4th century, the early Christians set aside these days as a time of prayer, preparation + penitence. It’s a time of self-reflection, self-seeking, self-searching + self-denial. It’s supposed to be a time of fasting, like real fasting. Not just a faith-based diet."
"I am convinced that the great divide among Christians today are those people who understand God’s radical grace and those who don’t. When we understand grace, our hearts open to the miracle of God’s love for us and we love each other in a different way."

@johnkrasinski I gotta know... did your idea for “A Quiet Place” begin in @theofficetv , season 8, episode 11 “Trivia” at the start of the show where the entire office plays the quiet game?

The whole of these United States of America, Republicans and Democrats alike, needed that fly. It was a gift from God’s celestial shore. Just a few more weary days and then. I’ll fly away.
