More quotes by William P. Young
We've created a theology in the West of a God who is fundamentally self-centered. The imagery of God as distant, unapproachable, unreachable -- that's not a God who is relational. It is a God that gets to declare or judge when he gets pissed off. But there is no basis for love and relationships if God is a fundamentally self-centered being.
William P. Young
I had a very angry father and was disconnected from my family.
William P. Young
You are free to love without an agenda
William P. Young
Nothing in life is ritual.
William P. Young
If a rainbow makes a sound, or a flower as it grows, that was the sound of her laughter.

mistakes are a part of life, and Papa works her purpose in them too.
William P. Young
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
Love always leaves a significant mark.
William P. Young
Responsibilites and expectations are the basis of guilt and shame and judgement, and they provide the essential framework that promotes performance as the basis for identity and value.
William P. Young
So many believe that it is love that grows, but it is the knowing that grows and love simply expands to contain it.
William P. Young
Jesus picked up the conversation. As the crowning glory of creation, you were made in Our image, unencumbered by structure and free to simply 'be' in relationship with Me and one another. If you had trully learned to regard one another's concerns as significant as your own, there would be no need for hierarchy.
William P. Young
Because you continue to inhabit and believe your metaphors, you cannot see what is true.
William P. Young
Does that mean, asked Mack, that all roads will lead to you? Not at all, smiled Jesus...Most roads don't lead anywhere. What it does mean is that I will travel any road to find you.
William P. Young
I don't just want a piece of you and a piece of your life. Even if you were able, which you are not, to give me the biggest piece, that is not what I want. I want all of you and all of every part of you and your day.
William P. Young
You have to take the time to prepare the soil if you want to embrace the seed.
William P. Young
There is always risk in relationships, but bottom line? The world has no meaning apart from relationships. Some are just messier than others, some are seasonal, others are difficult, and a few are easy, but every one of them is important.
William P. Young
Mackenzie, you cannot produce trust, just as you cannot 'do' humility. It either is or is not. Trust is the fruit of a relationship in which you know you are loved. Because you do not know that I love you, you cannot trust me.
William P. Young
Truth will set you free. And Truth has a name.
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.

Sin is its own punishment, devouring you from the inside.
