It is a myth that man in his natural state is genuinely seeking God. Men do seek God. But they do not seek him for who he is. They seek him in a pinch as one who might preserve them from death or enhance their worldly enjoyments. Apart from conversion, no one comes to the light of God.

I feel a special calling to impart hope to the church I serve.

There are a thousand needs in the world, and none of them compares to the global need for the gospel.

Marriage. The roots are deep. The covenant is solid. The love is sweet. Life is hard. And God is good.

Why does God bless us with abundance? So we can have enough to live on and then use the rest for all manner of good works that alleviate spiritual and physical misery. Enough for us; abundance for others.

Betrayed by Judas, denied by Peter, abandoned by the eleven, forsaken by God. Darkness, you get one hour. Then you die.

Don't marry so you can stop pursuing women. Marry so you can perfect the pursuit of ONE woman for a lifetime.
