Your value is not determined by your valuables, and God says the most valuable things in life are not things!

Experience is not what happens to you. It is what you do with what happens to you. Don’t waste your pain; use it to help others.

If God was small enough for you to completely understand him, he wouldn't be big enough for you to completely trust him.

God doesn't owe us an explanation for everything and actually what I've found is that explanations don't comfort. What comforts is the presence of God, not the explanation of God.

We're going to serve in eternity. We're not going to sit around on clouds; you know this whole idea of heaven is wearing white robes with angels and play a harp. To me, that would be hell. I can't think of anything more boring.

You may be Catholic or Protestant or Buddhist or Baptist or Muslim or Mormon or Jewish or Jain, or you have no religion at all. I'm not interested in your religious background. Because God did not create the universe for us to have religion. He came for us to have a relationship with him.

Most of us want to have enough... good works to get into heaven, but enough bad works to be fun.
