Continuing a Lenten series on prayer: Prayer is co-operation with God. It is the purest exercise of the faculties God has given us - an exercise that links these faculties with the Maker to work out the intentions He had in mind in their creation.

Faith is not merely you holding on to God- it is God holding on to you

The God I find in Christ is a God who overcomes evil with good, hate by love, and the world by a cross.

A Rattlesnake, if Cornered will become so angry it will bite itself. That is exactly what the harboring of hate and resentment against others is -- a biting of oneself. We think we are harming others in holding these spites and hates, but the deeper harm is to ourselves.

The moral laws of the Universe are deeply embedded in the constitution of things. We do not break them - we break ourselves upon them.

A reduced Christ is the same as a rejected Christ.

Grace is free, but when once you take it, you are bound forever to the Giver and bound to catch the spirit of the Giver.
