Courage is not the absence of fear; it is the absence of self.

A life well lived is the most exquisite work of art.

The future belongs to those who have the courage to create it. We need a new humanity. We need a new expression of community. We need the Church to bring the world together. This makes me excited.

The Church is not segregated by region or cities. That's an antiquated view of the world. We are united with churches all over the world working toward common goals based on shared values. Mosaic is one of the most racially diverse churches on the planet. Our community and extended Church family is global and completely integrated.

It is amazing how much we can endure when we are convinced there is a purpose to our struggle.

When we lack integrity, we use power to control. When we lead with integrity, we use power to bless.

The church does not exist for us. We are the church, and we exist for the world.
