Take a Look Inside: "We're all dying; we can either die alone, or we can die in Jesus. But His death brings life, and it's when we die with Him that we really begin to live." --page 65
"Christianity is the unbelievably good news that there is forgiveness of sings, life, and salvation to be had in the midst of this dying world of ours. And this is the real thing: not just the same old rat race traded in for yet another treadmill. This is God's gift of life in exchange for death; LIFE in Person, in fact. In the person of Jesus Christ, who came that they may have life, and have it to the full (John 10: 10)." --page 34
"As I use the adjective liturgical in this book, it points to the origin and goal of Christian life and worship: from the Father through the Son in the Holy Spirit and then back again in the Spirit through the Son to the Father. This divine cycle gives shape to the entire Christian life. Everything we do in the Christian life is liturgical from beginning to end--including public worship, which is liturgical life together; our private prayers and meditation, which is liturgical life alone; and the service we perform in our vocation, which is liturgical life in the world." --page 128
"For the 'bottom line' of the Christian's life in this world is the person and work of Jesus Christ Himself and what He continues to do still today through His Holy Word and Sacrament. In fact, the work of every Christian in this world is actually the work Jesus Christ is doing and through that Christian." --page 177
