What makes us Christians shrug our shoulders when we ought to be flexing our muscles? What makes us apathetic in a day when there are loads to lift, a world to be won and captives to be set free? Why are so many bored when the times demand action?

We never know when we too will be called into eternity. I doubt if even one of those people who got on those planes or walked into the World Trade Center or the Pentagon last Tuesday morning thought it would be the last day of their lives. They didn't - it didn't occur to them. And that's why each of us needs to face our own spiritual need and commit ourselves to God and his will now.

Our world is obsessed with success. But how does God define success? Success in God's eyes is faithfulness to His calling.

When you come to Christ, you have to give up all the other gods.

My one purpose in life is to help people find a personal relationship with God, which, I believe, comes through knowing Christ.

We are more united than ever before. I think this was exemplified in a very moving way when the members of our Congress stood shoulder to shoulder the other day and sang God Bless America.

I am convinced the greatest act of love we can ever perform for people is to tell them about God's love for them in Christ.
