"A faith that can only exist in the light of victory and certainty is one which really affirms the self while pretending to affirm Christ, for it only follows Jesus in the belief that Jesus has conquered death. Yet a faith that can look at the horror of the cross and still say â€˜yesâ€™ is one that says â€˜noâ€™ to the self in saying â€˜yesâ€™ to Christ."

-- Peter Rollins
