Remembering Karl Barth, who died Dec 10, 1968: "As ministers we ought to speak of God. We are human, however, and so cannot speak of God. We ought therefore to recognize both our obligation and our inability and by that very recognition give glory to God." ~The Word of God and the Word of Man (1928)

We build up pictures before you like walls -
by now a thousand such walls surround you.
For each time our open hearts behold you,
our pious hands cloak you in disguise.
