You can keep your own religion - Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism, Mormonism - you just need to add Jesus to the equation. Then you become complete. You become a Buddhist with Jesus, a Hindu with Jesus, a Muslim with Jesus and so on. You can throw out the term Christianity and still be a follower of Jesus. In fact, you can throw out the term Christian too. In some countries, you could be persecuted for calling yourself a Christian, and there is no need for that. Just ask Jesus into your heart, you don't have to identify yourself as a Christian.

Some opportunities are a calling. Others are a distraction. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.

I'm naturally inclined to have sex with every beautiful woman I see. But that doesn't mean it's the right thing to do.

If you prayed as much as you worry, you'd have nothing to worry about.

Experience is not what happens to you. It is what you do with what happens to you. Don’t waste your pain; use it to help others.

If you are serious about changing your life, you are going to have to get into the Bible. You need to read it, study it, memorize it, meditate on it, and apply it.

The Bible offers three metaphors that teach us God's view of life: Life is a test, life is a trust, and life is a temporary assignment.
