To be a Christian is to live dangerously

“To be a Christian is to live dangerously, honestly, freely,—to step out in the name of love as if you may land on nothing, and to keep on stepping because the something that sustains you no empire can give you and no empire can take away. This is the kind of vision and courage required to enable the renewal of prophetic, democratic, Christian idenity in the age of American Empire.”

~ Cornel West
