Most of the time, it's your thinking, not your talent, that holds you back.

Small churches become more effective when they specialize in what they do best.

A person without conviction is a weak, jellyfish type of individual who mindlessly follows the crowd.

We receive from God, then we give to others.

I've often said why does God leave us here on earth, once we accept Christ, once we're in the family, why didn't he just kill us. Why leave us here? Well, because he's working on our character through these trials, these tribulations, we're learning to practice what we're going to do in heaven. So really, the kingdom mindset is actually the eternal mindset. It's not just about eternal life. Eternal life is getting ready for that.
