If we get it wrong about Jesus, it doesn’t matter what else we get right.

My purpose as a writer is to communicate in such a way as to challenge the thinking of readers and touch their hearts.

God doesn't look at just what we give. He also looks at what we keep.

It is by serving God and others that we store up heavenly treasures. Everyone gains; no one loses.

I believe the only way to break the power of materialism is first, to see ourselves as stewards that God has entrusted these money and possessions to, and second, to give. Jesus says, "It is more blessed to give than to receive". As long as I still have something, I believe I own it. But when I give it away, I relinquish the control, power, and prestige that come with wealth.

Don't forget that the most effective form of child abuse is giving a child everything they want.

Tomorrow's character is made out of today's thoughts. Temptation may come suddenly, but sin does not.
