“We imitate whom we adore.” --St. Augustine
"Admiring Jesus has been substituted for following him." --Clarance Jordan
These two quotes, unfortunately, are all too descriptive of much of American Christianity today. Admiring Jesus for an hour or two on Sunday morning but imitating, seemingly with adoration, the xenophobic and bigoted rhetoric of 45 the rest of the week.
