Who are they to give stars or dots? They're Wemmicks just like you." Eli to Punchinello (p. 25)

Indeed, baptism is a vow, a sacred vow of the believer to follow Christ. Just as a wedding celebrates the fusion of two hearts, baptism celebrates the union of sinner with Savior.

I picked up this book called Blue Mountain, supposed to be a really good book on the Civil War.

It's one thing for me to tell people not to worry. It's another thing entirely to quote Matthew 6, where Jesus says, "Why do you worry? The birds of the air, the flowers of the field..." He says, "I tell you, do not worry."

I try to be honest; I really do try not to exaggerate the story. I try to be accurate.

I just love those [saying of Christ ]: "Father forgive them, they know not what they do. I thirst. It is finished. Into Your hands I commit My spirit. Today you will be with Me in paradise." That was really the heart of the second book I wrote called No Wonder They Call Him Savior.

Christmas is best pondered, not with logic, but with imagination.
