From the book ReJesus by Frost and Hirsch.
"We believe that Christology is the key to the renewal of the church in every age and in every possible situation it might find itself in. The church must always return to Jesus in order to renew itself. When, for whatever reason, the church gets stuck or loses it's way in the world, it needs to recover it's primal identity in its founder."
"One of the most urgent reasons why we need to re-envison ourselves around Jesus is that our imaginations so easily become captive to the dominant forces in our culture, whether those forces are economic, political, religious, or ideological."
"In fact, we can sum up the task of discipleship as the lifelong project of literally becoming like Jesus, of becoming a little Jesus."
"At stake at the heart of discipleship is nothing less than the embodiment and transmission of the gospel."
And this quote from Soren Kierkegaard, "Christ is the Truth inasmuch as He is the way. He who does not follow in the way also abandons the truth. We possess Christ's truth only by imitating him, not by speculating about him."
