The most convicting thing ever said to me By Robin Schumacher, Exclusive Columnist Monday, March 10, 2025Getty Images/C.J.

I stopped my workout, hit pause on my earbuds, and stood there a bit dazed like I’d been hit in the face by my wife’s favorite cast iron skillet, which she uses to make some seriously good steaks.
Maybe you’ve had a moment like that — something was said to you or a thought crossed your mind and it caused you to throw whatever you were doing into park and everything stopped. In my case, Keller had let fly a quote by the English Anglican priest William Temple who said:
“Religion is what you do with your solitude.”
