When I moved into one of the worst inner-cities in America to do missionary work I had to do risk assessment, and It was a risk. My family could have been in danger, house could get robbed at any minute but I count it all as nothing compared to knowing Jesus it was all worth it at the end of the day.

You don't need to be accepted by everyone else to get reaccepted by the one who made you.

Don't fool people to think you are better than who you are. Instead of trying to act changed, pray that you will be changed.

Prayer isn't where we change God, but He changes us. Instead of praying for OUR desires, let's pray He burden us with HIS.

I don't exist to build a genre. I exist to build the Kingdom.

God just has his own agenda, and he does what he wants to do with stuff.

The church didn't know what to do with Ray Charles or Al Green. And so they were kind of ostracized.
