If your life is rushing in many directions at once, you are incapable of the kind of deep, unhurried prayer that is vital to the Christian walk.

When you get to the end will God say, "Well done," or, "What was up with that?"

You have never looked in the eyes of someone who does not matter to God.

If you're a serious minded leader, you will read. You will read all you can.

A leader's most valuable asset is not their time but their energy and ability to energize others.

It takes a great deal of courage to follow another person's lead.

The mark of community is not the absence of conflict. It's the presence of a reconciling spirit.
