Intentionally left blank

God who brings order from chaos also disrupts systems and rigidity; God is strong and weak, boundaried and vulnerable, fluid and stable, person and spirit, never-changing and ever-changing, one and three, many and much.

God does not bring closure but a gap. A God of the gaps is not the gap God fills, but the gap God opens. The name of God makes the present a space troubled by an immemorial past and an unforeseeable future. 
~ John Caputo - The Insistence of God: A Theology of Perhaps

It is not the case that we can say nothing of God: there can be no nothing without something. We must remain aware, however, that the space between the words we use to speak of God is as important as the words themselves.
