God's people cannot be shamed into serving God; they need to be challenged.
The greatest blessing in the whole world is being a blessing.
Preaching is truth set on fire.
Leadership is made for service.
If there's anything I'd like to preach about, the loudest, other than the Gospel, it's selfishness. If there's anything I'd like to impress upon the hearts and minds of my people, it's to get out of the self life.
Just to love, that's enough; being loved, that's a bonus.
