Convictions are not merely beliefs we hold; they are those beliefs that hold us in their grip.

Don’t allow the Internet to become your congregation. YouTube is a horrible place to go to church.

Passionate leaders driven by passionate beliefs draw passionate followers.

Hell will be filled with people who were avidly committed to Christian values.

God is most beautifully praised when His people hear His Word, love His Word, and obey His Word.

Everyone is in a hurry. The persons whom I lead in worship, among whom I counsel, visit, pray, preach, and teach, want shortcuts. They want me to help them fill in the form that will get them instant credit (in eternity). They are impatient for results. They have adopted the lifestyle of a tourist and only want the high points. . . . The Christian life cannot mature under such conditions and in such ways.

Hang on to this with your life: "In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world."
