The Mundane Work of the Spirit

Abstract

“One could almost suggest a strategy of the Spirit, who reconciles two enemies not by disclosing an underlying harmony, but by creating a new man, a man between, a third thing, upsetting the old tension and introducing a surprising way ahead for both. We are the Holy Spirit's experiment in new humanity, a poor thing offered to the world because we happen to have laughed in response to God's good news.”
