I don't have a lot of time in the sermon anyway. The sermon is only 25 minutes, which to me is frighteningly short. So I feel as if I need to get into that pretty quickly and make it as practical and accessible as possible.

God's blessings are dispensed according to the riches of his grace, not according to the depth of our faith.

Those in the circle of Christ had no doubt of his love; those in our circles should have no doubt about ours.

I was about 21 when I read that [Mere Christianity], and my faith was really being shaken during those days. Its a great, classic book.

The next time you're disappointed, don't panic. Don't give up. Just be patient and let God remind you He's still in control.

Others have promised and failed. But God has promised and succeeded. He loves you with an unfailing love.

Every person is unique.
