Quotes:

C.S Lewis- “Theology means “science of God” and I think any man who wants to think about God at all would like to have the clearest and most accurate ideas about Him which are available.”

“This all sounds great in theory but super overwhelming in practice but just remember He made the gospel and himself a mystery so we would keep asking questions in order to grow in intimacy with him.”

“The other day we were sitting at lunch at Chuy’s talking about the Trinity over a big basket of chips and a bowl of creamy jalapeno”
