"Church with all its imperfections, is faith's incubator. Church is faith's hospital and its picnic grounds, its sheltering tree and also the rich soil from which it grows. Church embraces faith and holds it tenderly with strong arms. It embraces me. And so, I love the church, even when it expects more of me than I think it should."
Karen Stiller, The Minister's Wife: A memoir of Faith, Doubt, Friendship, Loneliness, Forgiveness and More
