The missionary question is not, 'Where are there unbelievers?' and then send a missionary there. There are unbelievers everywhere!

That's the missionary question.

I just want to preach so bad I can hardly stand it. I love what I do.

The whole world lives for pleasure. The only difference is theirs is fleeting, while ours is forever in Jesus.

The greatest stumbling block for children in worship is that their parents do not cherish the hour. Children can feel the difference between duty and delight.
