Simplicity enables us to live lives of integrity in the face of the terrible realities of our global village.

Superficiality is the curse of our age. The doctrine of instant satisfaction is a primary spiritual problem.

Prayer is - a means of uniting us unto Himself.

The truth of the matter is, we all come to prayer with a tangled mass of motives altruistic and selfish, merciful and hateful, loving and bitter. Frankly, this side of eternity we will never unravel the good from the bad, the pure from the impure. God is big enough to receive us with all our mixture.

If we are silent when we should speak, we are not living the Discipline of silence. If we speak when we should be silent, we again miss the mark.

Simplicity is the only thing that sufficiently reorients our lives so that possessions can be genuinely enjoyed without destroying us.

Absolute freedom is absolute nonsense! We gain freedom in anything through commitment, discipline, and fixed habit.
