Many atheistic books and blogs seethe with anger. Remarkably, the authors do not limit their anger to Christians. They seem most livid with God. I don't believe in leprechauns, but I haven't dedicated my life to battling them. I suppose if I believed that people's faith in leprechauns poisoned civilization, I might get angry with members of leprechaun churches. But there's one thing I'm quite sure I wouldn't do: I would not get angry with leprechauns. Why not? Because I can't get angry with someone I know doesn't exist.

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

The greatest deterrent to giving is the illusion that this earth is our home.

Give. Giving affirms Christ's lordship. It dethrones me and exalts Him. It breaks the chains of mammon that would enslave me and transfers my center of gravity to Heaven.

You can't take it with you - but you can send it on ahead.

Those who know their unworthiness seize grace as a hungry man seizes bread: the self-righteous resent grace.

To procrastinate obedience is to disobey God.
