“Whatever affliction comes in our life, our Lord goes into the valley with us, leading us by the hand, even carrying us when it is necessary.”

[There are] seven gifts God gives you when you commit your life to Christ: a new relationship, a new citizenship, a new family, a new purpose, a new power, a new destiny, and a new journey.

Our world is obsessed with success. But how does God define success? Success in God’s eyes is faithfulness to His calling.

Read the Bible. Work hard and honestly. And don’t complain.

Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened.

Christianity is not a spectator sport. It’s something in which we become totally involved.

It was not the people or the Roman soldiers who put Jesus on the cross – it was your sins and my sins that made it necessary for Him to volunteer His death.

It may be difficult to understand why a test comes our way, but we must never forget that the test is accomplishing refining and purification.

While our world is shaking and crumbling, we need to realize that one thing will never change, and that is God. He is the same today as he was ten million years ago, and will be the same ten million years from today.

In some ways, Christians are homeless. Our true home is waiting for us, prepared by the Lord Jesus Christ.

We are the Bibles the world is reading; We are the creeds the world is needing; We are the sermons the world is heeding.

There is nothing wrong with men possessing riches. The wrong comes when riches possess men.

God proved His love on the Cross. When Christ hung, and bled, and died, it was God saying to the world, ‘I love you.’

When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when character is lost, all is lost.

If your faith isn’t rooted in the Bible, it will wither like a plant pulled out of the soil.

If people are kicking you in the behind, at least you’re in front of them.

The farther we get from God, the more the world spirals out of control.

One of the deepest principles of life and leadership: it’s not about you.

People who are in it for their own good are individualists. They don’t share the same heartbeat that makes a team so great. A great unit, whether it be football or any organization, shares the same heartbeat.

If wanting to win is a fault, as some of my critics seem to insist, then I plead guilty. I like to win. I know no other way. It’s in my blood.

A leader or a man of action in a crisis almost always acts subconsciously and then thinks of the reasons for his action.

The key to successful leadership today is influence, not authority.

If we are leading but not closely following Christ, we are misleading.

I don’t go by the rule book. I lead from the heart, not the head.

None of us is as smart as all of us.
