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

What makes a Christian a Christian is not perfection but forgiveness.

God grants us an uncommon life to the degree we surrender our common one.

Our moods may shift, but God's doesn't. Our minds may change, but God's doesn't. Our devotion may falter, but God's never does. Even if we are faithless, He is faithful, for He cannot betray himself. He is a sure God.

Michael Jordan once said that the most peaceful moments of his life were on a basketball court, because that's the only place he knew exactly what to do. And to me the most peaceful moments in my ministry are in the pulpit because that's when I really know what I'm going to do.

God is not troubled by one who is conservative or liberal, and He certainly never inclines His ear toward a donkey or an elephant.

What I'm urging people to do is trust in the sovereignty of God.
