If you would rather pick a fight than solve a problem, do not consider leading the church

Ambition that centers on the glory of God and welfare of the church is a mighty force for good.

Jesus was the meeting place of eternity and time, the blending of deity and humanity, the junction of heaven and earth.

Most men are notable for one conspicuous virtue or grace - Moses for meekness, Job for patience, John for love. But, in Jesus you find everything.

God is always at work, though we cannot see it, preparing people he has chosen for leadership. When the crisis comes, God fits His appointee into the place ordained for him.

Fatigue is the price of leadership. Mediocrity is the price of never getting tired.

Sacrifice is the ecstasy of giving the best we have to the One we love most.
