A sermon without Christ as its beginning, middle, and end is a mistake in conception, a crime in execution.

The Christian's life should be one of thankfulness to God.

Music is at its best when it is pleasingly melancholic.

If we complained less, and praised more, we should be happier, and God would be more glorified.

If you simply take the name of Christ upon you and call yourself His servant, yet do not obey Him, but follow your own whim, or your own hereditary prejudice, or the custom of some erroneous church-you are no servant of Christ. If you really are a servant of Christ, your first duty is to obey Him.

All the preaching in the world cannot make a man see the truth so long as his eyes are blinded.

The world will never be converted to God unitl Christians cry less and laugh and sing more.
