The Agnosticism of Inattention

“This terrible, slow disease that we suffer from which destroys

our compassion stems from what Brennan Manning calls the

‘agnosticism of inattention.’

We fail to be disciplined against the forces that are constantly

seeking to dissolve our connection with the heart of God and

the hearts of others, our distractedness leads to a chosen

blindness, and blindness can lead to indifference.

Our indifference costs us more than we know.”

“In order to love, we must first begin to see.”
