Helping someone come to a saving knowledge of Christ is the greatest achievement possible.

Although the church accomplishes many tasks, its only message to the world is the gospel of Christ. Everything else we do is merely an extension of that primary goal. The gospel we offer the lost is superior to every worldly philosophy. Never outdated or in need of correction, it is always sufficient to meet humanity's greatest need: reconciliation with the Creator.

I'm convinced that the man who has learned to meditate upon the Lord will be able to run on his feet and walk in his spirit. Although he may be hurried by his vocation, that's not the issue. The issue is how fast his spirit is going. To slow it down takes a period of time.

The reason so many of us struggle so intensely with adversity is that we have yet to adopt God's perspective and priorities.

I think a lot of people, even Christians, are willing to be satisfied with gaining lots and lots of biblical knowledge - and many people go to Bible studies and don't realize it isn't enough to know what's right, it's applying the information and the knowledge that you have.

The best way in the world to deceive believers is to cloak a message in religious language and declare that it conveys some new insight from God.

When God speaks, oftentimes His voice will call for an act of courage on our part.
