The theology of the hammer embraces wholeheartedly the idea that the love of God and love of man must be blended. The word and the deed must come together. One without the other is devoid of meaning … As the deed gets closer to the word, God gets closer to us. The results are always wonderful — and sometimes spectacular!

Nobody loves a good worship service more than I do, but we are called to make religion real, to make our faith come alive. Helping others have a decent place to live is one way to do that and it doesn't take too long for others to recognize it, too.

Faith without works is as dead as a doornail.

The only safe investment one can make in life is what is given away.

I see life as both a gift and a responsibility. My responsibility is to use what God has given me to help His people in need.

For a community to be whole and healthy, it must be based on people's love and concern for each other.
