“I feel like I am constantly saying things I don't mean. I tell people they should share their faith, but I don't feel like sharing my faith. I tell people that should be in the Word, but I am only in the Word because I have to teach the Word. I said to a guy the other day, 'God bless you.' What does that mean? I have been saying that stuff all my life, but what does it mean? Then I started thinking about all the crap I say. All the clichés, all the parroted slogans. I have become an infomercial for God, and I don't even use the product.”Donald Miller book Blue Like Jazz: nonreligious thoughts on Christian spiritualityBlue Like Jazz (2003, Nelson Books)
“Even our beliefs have become trend statements. We don't even believe things because we believe them anymore. We only believe things because they are cool things to believe.”Donald Miller book Blue Like Jazz: nonreligious thoughts on Christian spiritualityBlue Like Jazz (2003, Nelson Books)
