UNSPLITTING THE WORLD

‘Splitting’, in psychological terms, describes a person’s inability to integrate positive and negative qualities into a cohesive, realistic whole resulting in a polarised, extreme, black & white view of reality. It is, in other words, Twitter. It may even be the mass-psychosis of our modern, Western world.

UN-SPLITTING THE WORLD

Our pre-modern, non-western Scriptures seem relatively free from this

Quotes by Pete Greig  (?)
Quotes are added by the ÀÏ»¢»úÎÈÓ®·½·¨ community and are not verified by ÀÏ»¢»úÎÈÓ®·½·¨.

“I asked for strength that I might achieve; He made me weak that I might obey. I asked for health that I might do greater things; I was given grace that I might do better things. I asked for riches that I might be happy; I was given poverty that I might be wise. I asked for power that I might have the praise of men; I was given weakness that I might feel the need of God. I asked for all things that I might enjoy life; I was given life that I might enjoy all things. I received nothing that I asked for, all that I hoped for. My prayer was answered, I was most blessed.”
Pete Greig, God on Mute: Engaging the Silence of Unanswered Prayer

“But I am learning to understand that I may never fully understand. I am learning to be a bit more okay with not being okay. Life sometimes hurts, but I’ve discovered that deleting God from the equation doesn’t actually help. It merely removes all meaning and morality from the mess and all real hope from the future. And so I’m sort of stuck with God, even when I don’t understand him. Even when I don’t completely like him. Turns out he is all I’ve got. And maybe this is where hallowing actually begins.”
Pete Greig, How to Pray: A Simple Guide for Normal People

“Too many people are missing their destiny a year at a time because they're too scared to think in decades!"
(p. 127)”
Pete Greig, Punk Monk: New Monasticism and the Ancient Art of Breathing
