Text Quotes
The more I have read the Bible and studied the life of Jesus, the more I have become convinced that Christianity spreads best not through force but through fascination  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) If those of us who believe in God do not believe God’s grace is big enough to save the whole world... well, we should at least pray that it is  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) It doesn’t matter who you are. Everyone has something to offer the movement of justice  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) Prayer is not so much about convincing God to do what we want God to do as it is about convincing ourselves to do what God wants us to do  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) People had taught me what Christians believe, but no one had told me how Christians live  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) Christians pretty much live like everybody else, they just sprinkle a little Jesus in along the way  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) I wondered if there were other restless people asking the question with me: What if Jesus meant the stuff he said?  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) When we truly discover how to love our neighbor as our self, capitalism will not be possible and Marxism will not be necessary  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) Perhaps there is no more dangerous place for a Christian to be than in safety and comfort, detached from the suffering of others  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) When the church takes affairs of the state more seriously than they do Jesus, Pax Romana becomes its gospel and the president becomes the Son of God  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) To all my nonbelieving, sort-of-believing, and used-to-be-believing friends: I feel like I should begin with a confession. I am sorry that so often the biggest obstacle to God has been Christians  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) It is a dangerous day when we can take the cross out of the church more easily than the flag. No wonder it is hard for seekers to find God nowadays  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) There is a movement bubbling up that goes beyond cynicism and celebrates a new way of living, a generation that stops complaining about the church it sees and becomes the church it dreams of  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) Recognizing that something is wrong is the first step toward changing the world  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) The question becomes not just how to accumulate more, but how to covet less  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) Jesus did not send us into the world to make believers but to make disciples  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) It is a beautiful thing when folks in poverty are no longer just a missions project but become genuine friends and family with whom we laugh, cry, dream and struggle  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) My goal is to speak the truth in love. There are a lot of people speaking the truth with no love, and there are a lot of people talking about love without much truth  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) Believe in miracles. And live in a way that might necessitate one  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) There are some things to die for but none to kill for  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) There is nothing more sickening than talking about poverty over a fancy dinner  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) Dance until they kill you, and then we’ll dance some more  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) The greatest sin of political imagination: Thinking there is no other way except the filthy rotten system we have today  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) We give people fish. We teach them to fish. We tear down the walls that have been built up around the fish pond. And we figure out who polluted it  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) All around you, people will be tiptoeing through life, just to arrive at death safely. But dear children, do not tiptoe. Run, hop, skip, or dance, just don’t tiptoe  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) We can tell the world that there is life after death, but the world really seems to be wondering if there is life before death  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) Biological family is too small of a vision. Patriotism is far too myopic. A love for our own relatives and a love for the people of our own country are not bad things, but our love does not stop at the border  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) Charity wins awards and applause, but joining the poor gets you killed. People do not get crucified for charity. People are crucified for living out a love that disrupts the social order, that calls forth a new world. People are not crucified for helping poor people. People are crucified for joining them  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) Christianity is at its best when it is peculiar, marginalized, suffering, and it is at its worst when it is popular, credible, triumphal, and powerful  (Shane Claiborne Quotes) Little movements of communities of ordinary radicals are committed to doing small things with great love  (Shane Claiborne Quotes)
