Don't waste your pain; use it to help others.

Relationships, not achievements or the acquisition of things, are what matters most in life.

Will we fulfill God's purpose, or will we shrink back and live a comfortable, self-centered life?

The only way you can serve God is by serving other people.

Emphasize reconciliation, not resolution. It is unrealistic to expect everyone to agree about everything. Reconciliation focuses on the relationship, while resolution focuses on the problem. When we focus on reconciliation, the problem loses significance and often becomes irrelevant.

I'm looking for a second reformation. The first reformation of the church 500 years ago was about beliefs. This one is going to be about behavior. The first one was about creeds. This one is going to be about deeds. It is not going to be about what does the church believe, but about what is the church doing.

Kindness always starts with noticing the needs and hurts of others.
