Prayer is to the skeptic a delusion, a waste of time. To the believer it represents perhaps the most important use of time.

We do well to remember that the Bible has far more to say about how to live during the journey than about the ultimate destination.

Most observers understand the difference between a committed Christian who accepts Jesus as a model for living and a 'cultural Christian' who happens to live in a nation with a Christian heritage. Most Muslims do not.

Sociologists have a theory of the looking-glass self: You become what the most important person in your life (wife, father, boss, etc.) thinks you are. How would my life change if I truly believed the Bible's astounding words about God's love for me, if I looked in the mirror and saw what God sees?

Often, it seems, we're [Christians] perceived more as guilt dispensers than as grace dispensers.

What you and I think about Jesus and how we respond to Him will determine our destiny for all eternity.

If Jesus had never lived, we would not have been able to invent him.
