Love without truth devolves into sentimentality. Truth without love becomes cold and calculated.

The cross is Jesus going into the very lair of death. He goes to meet head-on that which frightens us the most. And what does He do? He battles it. He engages it. And finally he conquers it.

For many people, the big feast of the year is Christmas, but for Christians, the truly great feast is Easter. Without Easter, without the Resurrection, we would not have the gift of salvation. Jesus had to rise from the dead or else he would have just been another failed Messiah and his birth would be a forgotten footnote of history.

I don't think we'll understand Advent correctly until we see it as a preparation for a revolution.

We have laws against polluting our rivers but not against polluting our minds.

Your faith will grow only in the measure that you give it away.

Love is not a sentiment or feeling. Love is actively willing the good of the other.
