It is to be kept in mind that the generations of men do not wait for the convenience of the church in respect to their evangelization. Men are born and die whether or not Christians are ready to give them the Gospel. And hence, if the church of any generation does not evangelize the heathen of that generation, those heathen will never be evangelized at all. It is always true in the work of evangelization that the present can never anticipate the future, and that the future can never replace the past. What is to be done in soul saving must be done by that generation.

The person who sees the difficulties so clearly that he does not discern the possibilities cannot inspire a vision in others.

True leadership is found in giving yourself in service to others, not in coaxing or inducing others to serve you.

Faith never knows where it is being led, or it would not be faith. True faith is content to travel under sealed orders.

Leadership is the ability to recognize the special abilities and limitations of others, combined with the capacity to fit each one into the job where he will do his best.

There is no such thing as a self made spiritual leader. He is able to influence others spiritually only because the Spirit is able to work in and through him to a greater degree than in those he leads.

Our sense of humor is a gift from God which should be controlled as well as cultivated.
