Frederick Buechner

I am more familiar with Frederick Buechner's writings through their use within other person's works than his books. They always seem to be thought provoking. Today I saw the following quote:

"What is both Good and New about the Good News is that mad insistence that Jesus lives on among us not just as another haunting memory but as the outlandish, holy, and invisible power of God working, not just through the sacraments, but in countless hidden ways to make even slobs like us loving and whole beyond anything we could conceivably pull off by ourselves."

One of these days I am going to read more of Buechner's works in their entirety.
