• Food for Thought:

  Goethe once wrote in a letter that "there are three kinds of reader: one, who enjoys without judgment; a third, who judges without enjoyment; and one between them who judges as he enjoys and enjoys as he judges. This latter kind really reproduces the work of art anew" (quoted in Alan Jacobs' A Theology of Reading).

  The hermeneutics of love requires that all books and authors, however alien to the beliefs and practices of the Christian life, be understood and treated as neighbors. (Alan Jacobs)
