- "I do not see Christian allegiance as a matter of adopting simple answers and I distrust those who thrust them upon others, particularly if they are urging various kinds of heroic behaviour which the speakers are not required to practice themselves -- the heterosexual urging sexual abstinence on the homosexual, celibate priests urging married women not to use contraceptive, or the happily married condemning divorce."

- Includes bibliographical references.
- "The idea of 'Clarity and Courage' came to me over time as I watched how other people and I myself handled change. Some people seemed able to embrace what life brought them and move forward. Others seemed stuck and unable to cope. Some, like me, seemed to muddle through. Before my ordination in the Anglican Church of Canada, I had two related careers in broadcasting and corporate communications. My own questions led to several years of indecision. After exploring options, I was ordained and spent a major portion of my life in congregational ministry. .... This book will be particularly useful if you find yourself: wondering what the future holds, seeking a balance between work and life, wondering how to connect your spirit with your work, feeling you are in a transition period in your life, wondering how you could make a contribution to the world, or looking to discern what God is calling you to do and to be". -- Preface.

- "Compassion feels dangerous to the powerful. If I begin to truly feel your pain, I run the risk of having to change. I may have to stop doring something I'm doing now. Or start doing something I'm not. I may have to give over some of my power. Compassion is inconvenient. .... Compassion prevents us from objectifying other people, the necessary first step towards killing them with whatever death we do that, the death of the body or the death of the soul."
