... the way we view death determines, to a surprising degree, the way we live our lives.

The world's favorite verb is 'get'. The verb of the Christian is 'give'

A calling is you feel - you look out and see the need - maybe it's the need for the poor, to help poor people. Maybe it's the need to get involved in the race problem, as Martin Luther King was - felt called.

I don't go out and preach because of my desire as much as I go out to fulfill the command of Christ. He said, "Go!" to all of His disciples, and we're to go and witness to Christ by the way we live and by our verbal witness about the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ and about the need to repent and believe. I've never had any doubts about my call.

Death is robbed of much of its terror for the true believer.

Christ demands first place. There's no room on the throne of your heart for two gods.

I never saw a U-Haul behind a hearse.
