William P. Young
Forgiveness is not about forgetting. It is about letting go of another person's throat.

I was raised in a tribal situation, among cannibal people.

You cannot heal yourself. You cannot heal anybody else. We're designed to do this in community because we were created inside community for community by community.
William P. Young
I wrote a story for my kids. It's fiction. It's not systematic theology. It's not a new book of the Bible. It's flawed, I wrote it. All of that goes into the mix, but I love the controversy. It elevates the conversation.
William P. Young
God's voice had been reduced to paper, and even that paper had to be moderated and deciphered by the proper authorities and intellect.
William P. Young
Emotions talked to you before you had words, so listen to them ... they are often more honest than the mind's remarkable ability to self deceive.
William P. Young
You have to take the time to prepare the soil if you want to embrace the seed.
William P. Young
Each relationship between two persons is absolutely unique. That is why you cannot love two people the same. It simply is not possible. You love each person differently because of who they are and the uniqueness that they draw out of you.
William P. Young
Much as I venerate the name of Newton, I am not obliged to believe that he was infallible. I see ... with regret that he was liable to err, and that his authority has, perhaps, sometimes even retarded the progress of science.

If anything matters, then everything matters.
