Barbara Brown Taylor Quotes

I Would Have To Say That At Least One Of The Things That Almost Killed Me Was Becoming A Professional Holy Person. I Am Not Sure That The Deadliness Was In The Job As Much As It Was In The Way I Did It, But I Now Have Higher Regard Than Ever For Clergy Who Are Able To Wear Their Mantles Without Mistaking The Fabric For Their Own Skin. As Many Years As I Wanted To Wear A Clerical Collar And As Hard As I Worked To Get One, Taking It Off Turned Out To Be As Necessary For My Salvation As Putting It On.
