1 " The way we saw things, it didn’t matter that God had created the heavens and the earth—he did not want us excited about living here. A good fundamentalist worth his weight in guilt was quick to remind any skeptic that the world was going to hell in a handbasket. "
― Matthew Paul Turner , Churched: One Kid's Journey Toward God Despite a Holy Mess
2 " I didn’t want to open up to the kind of pastor who believed that, while I told him my story, God was secretly and inerrantly revealing the rest of my story to him. I’ve had pastors make assumptions about me before. I’d tell them a story or two, and they filled in the blanks with their own theories and conclusions about the condition of my soul. "
