Patience is more than a virtue for long lines and slow waiters. Patience is the red carpet upon which God's grace approaches us.

No one can teach your child like you can. No nanny, Bible school teacher, aunt, or uncle has your authority. What a phenomenal privilege is yours.

He promises a lamp unto our feet, not a crystal ball into the future.

We’re grateful when all is well, but can we say the same on disastrous days?

There is no religion like Christianity, it is not one religion among others, it is completely different, its mixing apples and oranges.

For all its peculiarities and unevenness, the Bible has a simple story. God made man. Man rejected God. God won't give up until he wins him back. God will whisper. He will shout. He will touch and tug. He will take away our burdens; he'll even take away our blessings. If there are a thousand steps between us and him, he will take all but one. But he will leave the final one for us. The choice is ours. Please understand. His goal is not to make you happy. His goal is to make you His. His goal is not to get you what you want; it is to get you what you need.
