"It is precisely in the tension between the seemingly impossible news of the gospel and ordinary life that Christian existence moves. Even the most atonishing claims and promises of the gospel must be held in relationship to ordinary life, and it is there in the contradition that both ordinary life and the gospel are what they are."
--W. Dow Edgerton, Speak to Me That I May Speak: A Spirituality of Preaching (Pilgrim Press, 2006), 46.
