Every church is flawed. Still, you'd better learn to love it since it's the only group Jesus said he's taking to Heaven.

The secret of endurance is to remember that your pain is temporary but your reward will be eternal.

I know that I am floating on the benefit of other people. I do not deserve the blessings that I've gotten.

I really do feel that these people are brothers and sisters in God's family. I am looking to build bridges with the Orthodox Church, looking to build bridges with the Catholic Church, with the Anglican church.

The way God teaches us to live by faith is He takes away our feelings.

God wants to use you to make a difference in His world. He wants to work through you. What matters is not the duration of your life, but the donation of it. Not how long you lived, but how you lived.

That's God's number one purpose, to make us like Christ.
