God has moved out of the fortress of pedestrian certainties and is dwelling in perplexities. He has abandoned our complacencies and has entered our spiritual agony, upsetting dogmas, discrediting articulations.
Beyond all doctrines and greater than human faith stands God…
Deeper than all our understanding is our bold certainty that God is with us in distress, hiding in the scandal of our ambiguities.
And now God may send those whom we have expected least to do his deed—strange is His deed; to carry out his work—alien is His work” (Isaiah 28.21).*
