One day America and all its presidents will be a footnote in history, but the kingdom of Jesus will never end.

We are more than a collection of appetites - we are of God.

Love is the overflow of joy in God! It is not duty for duty's sake, or right for right's sake. It is not a resolute abandoning of one's own good with a view solely to the good of the other person. It is first a deeply satisfying experience of the fullness of God's grace, and then a doubly satisfying experience of sharing that grace with another person.

Sin carries in it its own misery.

The evil and suffering in this world are greater than any of us can comprehend. But evil and suffering are not ultimate. God is. Satan, the great lover of evil and suffering, is not sovereign. God is.

The greatest threat to your ministry, dear brothers, is that you lose your joy in God.

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