Ministry is received, not achieved.

We are all called to fulfill God's five purposes for our lives: to worship, to fellowship, to grow like Christ, to serve, and to be on mission with God in the world.

Life is about letting God use you for his purposes, not using him for your own purpose.

Receiving, reading, researching, remembering, and reflecting on the Word of God are all useless if we fail to put what we learn into practice.

The more you pray, the less you'll panic. The more you worship, the less you worry. You'll feel more patient and less pressured.

Fellowship is a place of grace, where mistakes aren't rubbed in but rubbed out. Fellowship happens when mercy wins over justice.

I believe in the separation of church and state, but I do not believe in the separation of politics from religion.
