One of my favorite sights is to look across a room packed with people with their Bibles in their laps, studying who God is and what God has said- after midnight.

The price of our non-discipleshi p is high for those without Christ.

This is the curse of superficial religion: the constant attempt to do outward things apart from inward transformation.

Instead of imagining all the things we can accomplish, we ask God to do what only he can accomplish. Yes, we work, we plan, we organize, and we create, but we do it all while we fast, while we pray, and while we constantly confess our need for the provision of God.

Don't underestimate what God can do with ordinary people.

Let me introduce you to Jesus.

The most glorious reason you exist is for the proclamation of the glory of God to the ends of the world. And it's more than having a nice life.
