Discipleship never consists in this or that specific action: it is always a decision, either for or against Jesus Christ.

Christian love draws no distinction between one enemy and another, except that the more bitter our enemy's hatred, the greater his need of love. Be his enmity political or religious, he has nothing to expect from a follower of Jesus but unqualified love. In such love there is not inner discord between the private person and official capacity. In both we are disciples of Christ, or we are not Christians at all.

The Church is the Church only when it exists for others.

Christian love draws no distinction between one enemy and another, except that the more bitter our enemy's hatred, the greater his need of love.

It is a blessed thing to know that no power on earth, no temptation, no human frailty can dissolve what God holds together.

Just as our love for God begins with listening to God's Word, the beginning of love for other Christians is learning to listen to them.

A home is a kingdom of it's own in the midst of the world, a stronghold amid life's storms and stresses, a refuge, even a sanctuary.
