This is gospel for the vagabonds. Ne'er-do-wells and insufferable bastards.

— Panic! At The Disco, open.spotify.com

Momma said there's only so much fortune a man really needs and the rest is just for showing off. So, I gave a whole bunch of it to the Foursquare Gospel Church and I gave a whole bunch to the Bayou La Batre Fishing Hospital. And even though Bubba was dead, and Lieutenant Dan said I was nuts, I gave…

There are a number of women who are preachers who are preaching the Gospel today, teaching the Gospel today, and they are being very successful at it and they are meeting people's needs. You can't tell a woman who is called by God to teach that she cannot teach the Word of God.

You're looking at me as though I'm weird. My god! Are you so out of touch with most of America, most of which believes in the devil? I mean, Jesus Christ believed in the devil! It's in the Gospels!

— Charles Spurgeon, amazon.com

The community of the saints is not an ‘ideal’ community consisting of perfect and sinless men and women, where there is no need of further repentance.

Gospel: Jesus reminds his followers that they will face opposition and persecution. So when you forgive someone others won't forgive, help a homeless person others ignore, or advocate for an LGBT person others reject, don't be surprised when people oppose you. In fact, rejoice.

— James Martin, SJ, twitter.com

Gospel: 'My words will not pass away.' No matter what kind of evil is in the world, Jesus's words will endure. Don't despair when it seems like the Gospel is being trampled on, that the poor are forgotten, or that mercy is set aside. Christ is risen and his words are alive.

— James Martin, SJ, twitter.com

Gospel: Today four friends bring their paralyzed friend to Jesus, who heals him. Sometimes when we feel stuck, we have to rely on our friends to carry us to God. For the Gospel says, 'When Jesus saw *their* faith,' that is, the faith of the friends. We never come to God alone.

Gospel: How can Mary say 'yes' to the Angel's request to bear a child? One way: the Angel points to the example of Elizabeth. Mary would likely have known about her cousin's pregnancy. Thus, the Angel says, 'Look what God has already done. Trust in what God can do in the future.'

Gospel: Jesus says that others are complaining about him: 'Look, he is a glutton and a drunkard!' As my NT professor once told us, people were critiquing Jesus for 'living it up.' Jesus was a joyful man who delighted in the company of other men and women. His way is about joy!

Gospel: 'The angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, 'Rise, take the child and his mother, flee to Egypt.'' Joseph did so and thus for a time the Holy Family became refugees. Today's refugees need the same kind of love and protection that the Holy Family needed.

— James Martin, SJ, twitter.com

Gospel: Jesus is critiqued for eating with 'sinners and tax collectors,' as well as forgiving sins, speaking with women and healing the sick on the Sabbath. But for Jesus nothing should get in the way of proclaiming the Good News--which is the proclamation God's love for everyone.

— James Martin, SJ, twitter.com

Gospel: Today Jesus says to those who wish to encounter him, 'Come and see!' Where is he inviting us to see him today? In the faces of those who are the most despised and rejected, in the faces of migrants and refugees and all forgotten ones. Come and see him there. He's waiting.

— James Martin, SJ, twitter.com

Gospel: Jesus plucks the heads of grain for his disciples to eat. He does this in direct contradiction of the law. Why? Because sometimes there are higher values than law. Jesus knows that legalisms cannot get in the way of love or human flourishing. He says this over and over.

I wanna show that gospel, country, blues, rhythm and blues, jazz, rock ‘n’ roll are all just really one thing. Those are the American music and that is the American culture.

— Etta James, amazon.com

Don't hide your light! God gave you so many gifts and talents. Put them to use, helping your brothers and sisters, and the church.

— James Martin, SJ, twitter.com

Why does Jesus tell his disciples to "shake off" the dust from towns that reject them? One reason: there are many others waiting to hear your message. Go first to places where the ground is fertile. But also be open to returning to the old places. Because people change.

— James Martin, SJ, twitter.com

'Be like servants who await their master's return,' says Jesus. Ready to open the door 'immediately.' How open are we to the unexpected arrival of God in our lives? In what surprising person, place or experience will God be revealed to us? Be ready to open the door!
