As I recall, Newbigin somewhere said that certainty comes through an intellectual system - but we work with a story, not a system, so it yields something other than certainty. Instead, he said, the gospel offers us confidence - a proper confidence, not over-confident and not under-confident either. That's what I'm seeking ... imperfectly, no doubt ... to live, model, and teach.
