Pity can be nearsighted and condescending; shared suffering can be dignifying and life-changing.

The Bible makes it clear that every time that there is a story of faith, it is completely original. God's creative genius is endless.

You're here to be LIGHT... Shine! Be generous with your lives.

People learn to shop for churches; there is no loyalty to the church. They're consumers being attracted to one product or another. I think it's sacrilege, to tell you the truth, it really is.

Pity can be nearsighted and condescending; shared suffering can be dignifying and life-changing.

The only opportunity you will ever have to live by faith is in the circumstances you are provided this very day: this house you live in, this family you find yourself in, this job you have been given, the weather conditions that prevail at the ...moment.

I think pastors are the worst listeners. We're so used to speaking, teaching, giving answers. We must learn to be quiet, quit being so verbal, learn to pay attention to what's going on, and listen.
