Just ended a conversation with one of America's most famous atheists with "God bless you." Couldn't help it. And I meant it. And he knew it.

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.

We have a lowest-common-denominator Christianity being taught in so many denominations that has produced a people who simply do not know some of the most basic Christian truths.

The true test of our worldview is what we find entertaining.

At the end of the day, the biggest obstacle to evangelism is Christians who don’t share the gospel.

You have no idea, right now, what some young person in your church will mean for the cause of Christ. Lean in, encourage, mentor, think big.
