If we could see, even for a split second, the depths of God's love for us - all we'd want to do is worship and prayer would never seem a chore.

A homeless man standing at the off-ramp: the question in these moments isn't whether Jesus is in Him, but in me.

When it's hardest to pray are usually the times I need to pray the hardest. Not sure if that's irony or common sense.

If the heart is hardened, the intellect is darkened.

If Jesus didn't rise from the dead, an even greater miracle happened: 12 relatively uneducated guys changed the world and were martyred to protect a lie.

A rib... loaves and fish... some spit... God can do a lot with a little.

To love someone properly probably means that you won’t be very popular. Pure love, loving the way it was intended, is unfortunately a foreign concept to many. Love is messy. Love will involve hardship, demand patience, require forgiveness, test maturity, strain friendship, challenge priorities, refine character, ignite the heart and unleash the soul. Love is not something you sing about, it’s the reason you sing. Love is not something you write about, it’s the reason you write. Love is not something you live to find, it’s the reason that you are alive.
