You drift through life and let things happen to you, or go by design and say, 'This is what I'm intended to do.' The Bible is very clear that God has a purpose. But even if I know that purpose, I can't fulfill it if I'm out of shape.

Nothing else you do will ever matter as much as helping people establish an eternal relationship with God.

The only really happy people are those who have learned how to serve.

At most, you will live a hundred years on earth, but you will spend forever in eternity.

If what I do pleases God, it is always the right thing to do, and I can stop worrying about everyone else's reactions. This dramatically simplifies life.

You measure a church's strength, not by its seating capacity but by its sending capacity.

You cannot exalt God and yourself at the same time.
