Crosscurrents contents

“The do-it-yourself, self-help culture of North America has so thoroughly permeated our imaginations that we don’t give much sustained attention to the biggest thing of all, resurrection. And the reason we don’t give much attention to it is because the resurrection is not something we can use or manipulate or control or improve on . . . [R]esurrection is not available for our use; it is exclusively God’s operation.”

—Eugene Peterson in Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places
