Rachel Held Evans Quote
With all the conceptual truths in the universe at his disposal, writes Barbara Brown Taylor, [Jesus] did not give them something to think about together when he was gone. Instead, he gave them concrete things to do—specific ways of being together in their bodies—that would go on teaching them what they needed to know when he was no longer around to teach them himself . . . ‘Do this,’ he said—not believe this but do this—‘in remembrance of me.’ 40
