Text Quotes
We have so theologized the passion and death of this sacred man that we no longer see the slow unraveling of His tissue, the spread of gangrene, His raging thirst  (Brennan Manning Quotes) When being is divorced from doing, pious thoughts become an adequate substitute for washing dirty feet  (Brennan Manning Quotes) Quit keeping score altogether and surrender yourself with all your sinfulness to God who sees neither the score nor the scorekeeper but only his child redeemed by Christ  (Brennan Manning Quotes) How is it then that we've come to imagine that Christianity consists primarily in what we do for God? How has this come to be the good news of Jesus?  (Brennan Manning Quotes) Whenever religion shows contempt or disregards the rights of persons, even under the noblest pretexts, it draws us away from reality and God  (Brennan Manning Quotes) The gospel will persuade no one unless it has so convicted us that we are transformed by it  (Brennan Manning Quotes) When we get waylaid from our walk with God by busyness, depression, family problems, or worse, God does not abandon us  (Brennan Manning Quotes) Jesus was victorious not because he never flinched, talked back, or questioned, but having flinched, talked back, and questioned, he remained faithful  (Brennan Manning Quotes) Faithfulness requires the courage to risk everything on Jesus, the willingness to keep growing, and the readiness to risk failure throughout our lives  (Brennan Manning Quotes) You tell others about Me - that I am a loving God. Your words are glib. My words are written in the blood of My only Son  (Brennan Manning Quotes) A man doesn't grow old because he has lived a certain number of years. A man grows old when he deserts his ideal. The years may wrinkle his skin, but deserting his ideal wrinkles his soul  (Brennan Manning Quotes) Aristotle said I am a rational animal; I say I am an angel with an incredible capacity for beer  (Brennan Manning Quotes) One of my realizations in such an earthy atmosphere was that many of the burning theological issues in the church were neither burning nor theological  (Brennan Manning Quotes) God loves you unconditionally, as you are and not as you should be, because nobody is as they should be  (Brennan Manning Quotes) I you think you’ve done it, then you’re wrong. Because you’re not finished until you have achieved everything that you never thought you could  (Brennan Manning Quotes) When a man or woman is truly honest, it is virtually impossible to insult them personally  (Brennan Manning Quotes) In a futile attempt to erase our past, we deprive the community of our healing gift. If we conceal our wounds out of fear and shame, our inner darkness can neither be illuminated nor become a light for others  (Brennan Manning Quotes) The ragamuffin who sees his life as a voyage of discovery and runs the risk of failure has a better feel for faithfulness than the timid man who hides behind the law and never finds out who he is at all  (Brennan Manning Quotes) In every encounter we either give life or we drain it; there is no neutral exchange  (Brennan Manning Quotes) Though it is true that the church must always dissociate itself from sin, it can never have any excuse for keeping any sinner at a distance  (Brennan Manning Quotes) To lend each other a hand when we’re falling, perhaps that’s the only work that matters in the end  (Brennan Manning Quotes) The way you are with others every day, regardless of their status, is the true test of faith  (Brennan Manning Quotes) Tragedy is that our attention centers on what people are not, rather than on what they are and who they might become  (Brennan Manning Quotes) Jesus comes for sinners, for those outcast... and those caught up in squalid choices and failed dreams  (Brennan Manning Quotes) Grace is sufficient even though we huff and puff with all our might to try and find something or someone that it cannot cover. Grace is enough  (Brennan Manning Quotes) The trouble with our ideals is that if we live up to all of them, we become impossible to live with  (Brennan Manning Quotes) None of us has ever seen a motive. Therefore, we don’t know we can’t do anything more than suspect what inspires the action of another. For this good and valid reason, we’re told not to judge. Tragedy is that our attention centers on what people are not, rather than on what they are and who they might become  (Brennan Manning Quotes) I’ve decided that if I had my life to live over again, I would not only climb more mountains, swim more rivers, and watch more sunsets; I wouldn’t only jettison my hot water bottle, raincoat, umbrella, parachute, and raft; I would not only go barefoot earlier in the spring and stay out later in the fall; but I would devote not one more minute to monitoring my spiritual growth. No, not one  (Brennan Manning Quotes) When I get honest, I admit I am a bundle of paradoxes. I believe and I doubt, I hope and get discouraged, I love and I hate, I feel bad about feeling good, I feel guilty about not feeling guilty. I am trusting and suspicious. I am honest and I still play games. Aristotle said I am a rational animal; I say I am an angel with an incredible capacity for beer  (Brennan Manning Quotes) Lord, when I feel that what I’m doing is insignificant and unimportant, help me to remember that everything I do is significant and important in your eyes, because you love me and you put me here, and no one else can do what I am doing in exactly the way I do it  (Brennan Manning Quotes)
