There are accidental parents, but there are no accidental children. There are illegitimate parents, but there are no illegitimate children.

Salvation is not a religion. It's not rules or regulations or rituals. Salvation is a relationship. That relationship doesn't begin when you get to Heaven; it begins here on Earth.

Leadership is neither showmanship nor dictatorship. Leadership is a stewardship and a partnership.

Time is your most precious gift, because you only have a set amount of it.

You cannot exalt God and yourself at the same time.

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.
