I think that a church should be setting the pace for social justice.

We enjoy the fruit of the first coming but anticipate the glory of the second.

God cast you in His play, wrote you into His story. He has a definite direction for your life. Fulfill it and enjoy fulfillment. Play the part God prepared for you and get ready for some great days.

God is God. He knows what he is doing. When you can’t trace his hand, trust his heart.

I think you can tilt too far to the side of the story where the message is just simply entertainment. So I think your goal has to be to craft in one sentence what the truth is you are trying to convey. And then you find or create a story that you wrap around that truth.

If there are a thousand steps between us and God, He will take all but one. He will leave the final one for us. The choice is ours.

To have a pure heart, we must submit all thoughts to the authority of Christ. If we are willing to do that, he will change us to be like him.
