Disciples [deep people] are not manufactured wholesale. They are produced one by one, because someone has taken the pains to discipline, to instruct and enlighten, to nurture and train one that is younger.

Jesus drank a cup of wrath without mercy, that we might drink a cup of mercy without wrath.

True leaders must be willing to suffer for the sake of objectives great enough to demand their wholehearted obedience.

God prepares leaders with a specific place and task in mind. Training methods are adapted to the mission, and natural and spiritual gifts are given with clear purpose.

Faith enables the believing soul to treat the future as present and the invisible as seen.

Eyes that look are common; eyes that see are rare.

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