“I decided people are more important than tasks.”
jamie west zumwalt, Beloved Chaos: moving from religion to Love in a red light district

“I think if we are going to err (and we are going to err), then erring on the side of Love is where I want to be.”

“The idea of loving and helping “broken” people seems romantic. I’m going to rescue girls from the sex trade. I’m going to see addicts freed from drugs. I’m going to protect abused women. Then you get hurt.”
jamie west zumwalt, Beloved Chaos: moving from religion to Love in a red light district

“I suppose we all change over our lifetime. Some changes come naturally; pain forces some changes in us. Still others come as we intentionally set our minds to think differently, to be differently.”
jamie west zumwalt, Beloved Chaos: moving from religion to Love in a red light district

“Children love. It isn’t hard for them. They don’t see race or economic class, ex-con or homeless person. They only see people they love. It is a risk to take our children into the mess, and we think we are teaching them how to minister there, but in reality they are the ones who teach us to love because they are Love. And perfect Love casts out fear.”
