We do not have to make the Bible relevant - it already is! But we do have to show its relevance.

When a human body is out of balance we call that disease, which indicates dis-ease of the body. Likewise, when the body of Christ becomes unbalanced, disease occurs... Health will occur only when everything is brought back into balance. The task of church leadership is to discover and remove growth-restricting diseases and barriers so that natural, normal growth can occur.

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.

Your most effective ministry will come out of your deepest hurts.

I don't believe my interpretation's inerrant. I don't believe anybody else's interpretation is inerrant, but I do believe the scripture is inerrant. I believe in the plenary, verbal plenary inspiration of scripture, without a doubt.

The church must always show compassion, always.

If you have felt hopeless, hold on! Wonderful changes are going to happen in your life as you begin to live it on purpose.
