Jim Wallis Moving Quotations

We have got some mountains to move. Three billion people - half of God's children - are living on less than $2 a day.

Faith can cut in so many ways. If you're penitent and not triumphal, it can move us to repentance and accountability and help us reach for something higher than ourselves. That can be a powerful thing, a thing that moves us beyond politics as usual, like Martin Luther King did. But when it's designed to certify our righteousness - that can be a dangerous thing. Then it pushes self criticism aside. There's no reflection.

We can find common ground only by moving to higher ground.
