Andy Crouch Quotes
No Story Shows More Clearly Jesus' Utter Disregard Of Human Privilege - Disregard, Not Antipathy Or Distaste. He Is Swayed Neither By Jairus's Prominence Nor By The Woman's Poverty, But By The Faith And Desperate Need Of Each One. Jesus Is Not A Strategic Political Calculator, Currying Favor With The Local Leaders; Nor Is He A Revolutionary, Ostentatiously Undercutting The Powerful. He Is A Restorer Of Daughters, Known And Unknown, Socially Central And Socially Marginal. And While He Is Indifferent To Human Power, He Is So Exquisitely Aware Of His Own Power To Restore Health (which Is Simply Another Way To Say Flourishing Image Bearing) That The Slightest Faithful Brush With His Cloak Brings Him To A Halt, Not Content To Have Power Flow Anonymously And Disconnectedly, Searching Out Relationship With The Ones Who Seek Him.
