More quotes by Rob Bell
The moment God is figured out with nice neat lines and definitions, we are no longer dealing with God.
Rob Bell
Times change. God doesn’t, but times do. We learn and grow, and the world around us shifts, and the Christian faith is alive only when it is listening, morphing, innovating, letting go of whatever has gotten in the way of Jesus and embracing whatever will help us be more and more the people God wants us to be.
Rob Bell
Many people confuse religion with God and walk away from them both. The point isn't Christianity, the point is being a Christian.
Rob Bell
Your job is the relentless pursuit of who God made you to be. And anything else you do is sin and you need to repent of it.
Rob Bell
Often times when I meet atheists and we talk about the god they don’t believe in, we quickly discover that I don’t believe in that god, either.
Rob Bell
The Christian faith is mysterious to the core. It is about things and beings that ultimately can't be put into words. Language fails. And if we do definitively put God into words, we have at that very moment made God something God is not.
Rob Bell
To me some of the greatest writing is when somebody puts something in words that you felt and experienced and you go, that's it.
Rob Bell
Many people need a new rewiring of their heart and mind.
Rob Bell
My experience as a pastor is lots of people have really toxic, dangerous, psychologically devastating images of God in their head, images of a God who's not good.
Rob Bell
When we deny the spiritual dimension to our existence, we end up living like animals. And when we deny the physical, sexual dimension to our existence, we end up living like angels. And both ways are destructive, because God made us human.
Rob Bell
Questions are not scary. What is scary is when people don’t have any. What is tragic is faith that has no room for them.
Rob Bell
I think the church needs – I think this is the world we are living in and we need to affirm people wherever they are.
Rob Bell
It often appears that those who talk the most about going to heaven when you die talk the least about bringing heaven to earth right now, as Jesus taught us to pray: 'Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.' At the same time, it often appears that those who talk the most about relieving suffering now talk the least about heaven when we die.
Rob Bell
I have been told that I need to believe in Jesus. Which is a good thing. But what I am learning is that Jesus believes in me.
Rob Bell
I'm interested in painting the most beautifully compelling pictures and images and metaphors and stories and explanations possible that will put Jesus in language for a world that desperately needs to hear it.
Rob Bell
There are moments when we have to return to our roots.
Rob Bell
Celebrity seems totally at odds with authentic community and honest, real sorts of relationships.
Rob Bell
The danger is that in reaction to abuses and distortions of an idea, we'll reject it completely. And in the process miss out on the good of it, the worth of it, the truth of it.
Rob Bell
What does happen constantly with all kinds of people I meet is they say I had this encounter with Jesus, can you help me understand it... The labels, more than ever, simply aren't big enough to contain what the cosmic Christ is up to in the world.
Rob Bell
When the lab rats hear the bell ringing, they freeze. That's what fear does to you - fear stops you dead in your tracks. Fear can keep you from harm, but fear can also rob you of your potential. Fear can rob you of an experience. Fear can rob you of happiness. Fear can rob you of real life... Darkness has a way of scaring us.
