Quotes
Did Jesus hear voices because he was schizophrenic? Was this a messiah complex before we had a name for it? Lord knows there is enough arguing in the church already. Rather, such investigations into the mental health of Jesus remind us that although our investigations are often aimed at finding the answers to the identity of Jesus, we can easily forget how strange, how countercultural, evenhow threatening was the behavior of Jesus.
The Underground Church: Reclaiming the Subversive Way of Jesus, San Francisco: Jossey-Bass (2012), Chapter: Sweet Jesus: Talking His Melancholy Madness, p. 28.
The body of Christ was born to resist in love all that is the enemy of love. This cannot happen, however, until human beings are themselves freed from the illusions that afflict us—that is, until we are "undone."
Spiritual Defiance (2015), p. 7
