It is our confidence in the sovereign grace of God that gives us any hope of success in missions.

Holiness is the sum of a million little things — the avoidance of little evils and little foibles, the setting aside of little bits of worldliness and little acts of compromise, the putting to death of little inconsistencies and little indiscretions, the attention to little duties and little dealings, the hard work of little self-denials and little self-restraints, the cultivation of little benevolences and little forbearances.

The one indispensable requirement for producing godly, mature Christians is godly, mature Christians.
