History shows that when the church accommodates culture, it weakens it.
God will never love you any less or more than he does right now because his love is based on who he IS,not what you've done.
Your illness is not your identity. Your chemistry is not your character.
If God only used perfect people, He would have no one to use.
Absolutely nothing will revitalize a discouraged church faster than rediscovering it's purpose.
Every problem is a character-building opportunity, and the more difficult it is, the greater the potential for building spiritual muscle and moral fiber.
