Forgiveness must be immediate, whether or not a person asks for it. Trust must be rebuilt over time. Trust requires a track record.

Absolutely nothing will revitalize a discouraged church faster than rediscovering it's purpose.

There is nothing quite as potent as a focused life, one lived on purpose.

To begin loving people today, we must close the door on the past. And that cannot happen without forgiveness! Forgive those who have hurt you - for your sake, not because they deserve it.

I spend most of my time speaking to people who totally disagree with me. I speak to gays, I speak to atheists, I speak to secularists, I speak to Muslims because I am trying to build a bridge between my heart and theirs so Jesus can walk across and they can come to know Christ.

You never know God is all you need until God is all you have.

You will be tempted by the need to feed yourself.
