The eternal salvation of a single soul is more important than anything else you will ever achieve in life.

You don't have to be famous to be great.

Without a purpose, life is motion without meaning, activity without direction, and events without reason.

Unkind people need your kindness the most. They advertise their pain.

I would say that God custom designed my weaknesses. I am not making God responsible for my sins.

The ground we have in common with unbelievers is not the Bible, but our common needs, hurts, and interests as human beings. You cannot start with a text expecting the unchurched to be fascinated by it. You must first capture their attention, and then move them to the truth of God's Word. By starting with a topic that interests the unchurched and then showing what the Bible says about it, you can grab their attention, disarm prejudices, and create an interest in the Bible that wasn't there before.

Law is downstream from culture. By the time you make a law about something, you're reacting, not acting. I'd rather shape the culture.
