The wars of Israel were the only 'holy wars' in history... there can be no more wars of faith. The only way to overcome our enemy is by loving him.

We must be ready to allow ourselves to be interrupted by God.

To endure the cross is not tragedy; it is the suffering which is the fruit of an exclusive allegiance to Jesus Christ.

It is only because he became like us that we can become like him.

Those who love their dream of a Christian community more than the Christian community itself become destroyers of that Christian community even though their personal intentions may be ever so honest, earnest, and sacrificial.

One who loves his community destroys community; one who loves its members builds community.

Comfort the troubled, and trouble the comfortable.
