God is not an employer looking for employees. He is an Eagle looking for people who will take refuge under his wings.

God is pursuing with omnipotent passion a worldwide purpose of gathering joyful worshipers for Himself from every tribe and tongue and people and nation. He has an inexhaustible enthusiasm for the supremacy of His name among the nations. Therefore, let us bring our affections into line with His, and, for the sake of His name, let us renounce the quest for worldly comforts and join His global purpose.

If grace is to be free - which is the very meaning of grace - we cannot view it as something to be repaid.

And in these last hours, the lifetime of this year passes before my eyes, and I face the inevitable question: Did I live it well? Will Jesus Christ, the righteous judge, say “Well done, good and faithful servant”?

The ministry and mission of the church is at the center of Christian giving.

It is about the greatness of God, not the significance of man. God made man small and the universe big to say something about himself.

It is better to lose your life than to waste it.
