Let's commit ourselves to being true disciples of Jesus Christ. Not mere fair-weather followers, but disciples.

We can trust God's heart even when we can't trace His path.

If you have faith in God, if you believe that God can use you, if you are willing to take a step of faith here and there, then God can do incredible things through you.

When I get up to speak tonight, it's kind of a monologue. When I am talking with someone one-on-one, it's a dialogue. I ask them questions; I listen; I respond appropriately. I think we can do it in a loving way.

The Bible says that in the last days, there will be people in our churches who are not true believers, among other things. Because of watered-down messages and compromise, people will feel comfortable in certain churches because they are never confronted with their sin. I believe my job as a pastor is to comfort the afflicted and to afflict the comfortable.

Heaven is not for good people, it's for forgiven people.

We are supposed to share the gospel. So, I believe it can actually be a sinful thing to not do it.
