"I am not trying, O Lord, to penetrate thy loftiness, for I cannot begin to match my understanding with it, but I desire in some measure to understand thy truth, which my heart believes and loves. For I do not seek to understand in order to believe, but I believe in order to understand. For this too I believe, that "unless I believe, I shall not understand." Anselm quoted by Kelly Kapic. A Little Book for New Theologians. 2012. 70.
"...the [New Testament] does not correct the [Old Testament] view of God, but rather proclaims that which had been previously mysterious." Kelly Kapic. "The One Triune God." Worshipping the God Who Is. 2011. Section 2, Chapter 1.
"...we constantly need to be shaken out of a false sense of familiary with the past, to be administered doses of culture shock." Robert Darnton quoted in Sam Wineburg. Historical Thinking and Other Unnatural Acts. 2010. 10.
