A church must grow larger and smaller at the same time. Larger through worship and smaller through small groups.

Our culture has accepted two huge lies. The first is that if you disagree with someone’s lifestyle, you must fear or hate them. The second is that to love someone means you agree with everything they believe or do. Both are nonsense. You don’t have to compromise convictions to be compassionate.

Passion drives perfection.

Worship isn't an event to attend & watch. It's a lifestyle to be lived.

Marriage doesn't create problems. It reveals them. You bring unresolved stuff into it.

Worry is a waste of energy. It cant change the past. It cant control the future. It only makes today miserable
