The more you care about the powerless, the more power you have. The more you serve those with no influence, the more influence God gives you. The more you humble yourself, the more you're honored by others.

We are created for community, fashioned for fellowship, and formed for a family, and none of us can fulfill God's purposes by ourselves.

A great commitment to the Great Commandment and the Great Commission will grow a great church.

It's easy to demonize from a distance.

The deepest level of worship is praising God inspite of pain, trusting Him during a trial, surrendering while suffering, and loving Him when He seems distant.

The church must always show compassion, always.

The Bible makes it really clear that if I am not receptive to the grace of God I am headed toward wrath.
