True followers of Christ emulate Christ—true followers of Mohammed emulate Mohammed.

This search for happiness can knock us out of sync with God. As the life of Jesus makes clear, keeping in sync with God is about obedience. Any other pursuit will get in the way.

Christians can trust God to redeem even the greatest of tragedies and the most desperate of situations.

Jesus is Lord! That is not negotiable.

We often become mentally and spiritually barren because we're so busy.

It was Christ who willingly went to the cross, and it was our sins that took him there.

When we realize and embrace the Lord's will for us, we will love to do it. We won't want to do anything else. It's a passion.
