If there is no Caller, there are no callings - only work.

Everybody is born free. Not everybody is worthy of freedom.

The problem with Western Christians is not that they aren't where they should be but that they aren't what they should be where they are.

The rewards of freedom are always sweet, but its demands are stern, for at its heart is the paradox that the greatest enemy of freedom is freedom.

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

Culturally, one of the best arguments we can make is, wait and see.

What has happened to create this doubt is that a problem (such as a deep conflict or a bad experience) has been allowed to usurp God's place and become the controlling principle of life. Instead of viewing the problem from the vantage point of faith, the doubter views faith from the vantage point of the problem. Instead of faith sizing up the problem, the situation ends with the problem scaling down faith. The world of faith is upside down, and in the topsy-turvy reality of doubt, a problem has become god and God has become a problem.
