Next to the Holy Scriptures, the greatest aide to the life of faith may be Christian biographies.

God rescues us by breaking us, by shattering our strength and wiping out our resistance.

The grace of God is infinite and beyond our ability to measure. His grace has no beginning and therefore no end.

Come to the Word with a spirit of longing with devotion and humble expectation. Be determined to know God.

The God of the modern evangelical rarely astonishes anybody. He manages to stay pretty much with the constitution. Never break our by-laws. He's a very well-behaved God and very denominational and very much like one of us...we ask Him to help us when we're in trouble and look to Him to watch over us when we're asleep. The God of the modern evangelical isn't a God I could have much respect for.

Trying to be happy without a sense of God’s presence is like trying to have a bright day without the sun.
