The best book is not one that informs merely, but one that stirs the reader up to inform himself.

Faith never goes contrary to reason -- faith simply ignores reason and rises above it.

Faith is the gaze of a soul upon a saving God.

In coming to Christ we don't bring our old life up to a higher plane; we leave it at the cross.

The great test of faith is to wait on God. . . not expecting to push a button and get whatever we want now.

I want to be a more serious-minded Christian, more detached from this world, more ready for heaven than I have ever been in my whole life. I want an ear that is sharp to know the voice of the enemy, whether it comes from religion, politics, or philosophy ... I would rather stand and have everybody my enemy than to go along with the crowd to destruction. Do you feel that way?

The essence of surrender is getting out of God's way so that He can do in us what He also wants to do through us.
