Well Said: Radical Generosity and Us

From my quote journal.
The narrator of the story, also a preacher, apologizes to his son for not leaving much of an inheritance. He had given most of his money away as he earned it. ...

The preachers had to exhibit radical generosity in order to be believable to me. Whether it's a fictional contrivance or not, for me to believe in their holiness, they could not just sit in the office writing sermons and letters ... They had to be poor, yet generous, and Robinson delivered.

I demand so much of literary Christians. I wonder why I'm so easy on myself.
