New Issues facing Christians today- John Stott - Christian Bits
I have been reading this book and on Page 422 he quotes Ronald Knox
"Men will not live without vision; that moral we do well to carry away with us from contemplating, in so many strange forms, the record of the visionaries. If we are content with the humdrum, the second best, the hand-over-hand, it will not be forgiven us"
Over the last few weeks I have had occasions to witness those whose whole beings are consumed by what appears to be the humdrum to an extent that to me it defies rationality. How does someone's vision become so narrow and so exacting that the miss use of an explanation mark or a wrong use of words would almost cause a world war?
