Wisdom is the power to see, and the inclination to choose, the best and highest goal, together with the surest means of attaining it.

Our business is to present the Christian faith clothed in modern terms, not to propagate modern thought clothed in Christian terms... Confusion here is fatal.

Trying to describe what I do in prayer would be like telling the world how I make love to my wife.

God in his wisdom, to make and keep us humble and to teach us to walk by faith, has hidden from us almost everything that we should like to know about the providential purposes which he is working out in the churches and in our own lives.

God answers the prayer we ought to have made rather than the prayer we did make.
