I love this quote from Walter Brueggemann:
“If you are a coward by nature, don’t worry. We can still use you. You can get down behind the biblical text. You can peek out from behind the text saying, ‘I don’t know if I would say this, but I do think the text does.’”
It’s a great thought on reflecting about our relationship to scripture as Christians, and how to approach it as a pastor. For a great reflection based on this quote, check out Bob Hyatt’s post “The Cowardly Preacher?“
