We are not primarily called to do something or go somewhere; we are called to Someone.

To come to faith on the basis of experience alone is unwise, though not so foolish as to reject faith altogether because of lack of experience ... the quality of a Christian's experience depends on the quality of his faith, just as the quality of his faith depends in turn on the quality of his understanding of God's truth.

Followers of Jesus who count the cost and are willing to take up their crosses after him must have broad shoulders.

Too often we forget that the great men of faith reached the heights they did only by going through the depths.

We may at times be unemployed, but no one ever becomes uncalled.

In working out our callings, we are to perform for one audience, the audience of One.

As soon as we ask what faith is and what sort of mistreatment of faith causes doubt, we are led to the first major misconception about doubt-the idea that doubt is always wrong because it is the opposite of faith and the same thing as unbelief. What this error leads to is a view of faith that is unrealistic and a view of doubt that is unfair.
