"...we familied people who inhabit homes, who live among and with people who give us identity, whom we serve, by whom we are served, need to turn to our homes and them around just as we would turn over and admire a handcrafted piece of pottery that has been given us to appreciate... (In so doing) we will come upon the ways in which family members sense the presence of the indwelling God and the ways in which they respond to the passionate call of God truly to become transfigured people."
(Wendy Wright, Sacred Dwelling)
