“If a man can predict his own death and resurrection, and pull it off, I just go with whatever that man says”

Leadership is all about taking people on a journey. The challenge is that most of the time, we are asking people to follow us to places we ourselves have never been.

The health of your marriage tomorrow will be determined by the decisions you make today.

I’ve talked to many individuals who want to discuss their problems. But they don’t really have problems. They have chosen to live in the wrong direction. They don’t need a solution. They need a new direction.

My hope is not in riches but in him who richly provides.

Learning never takes place while you’re talking.

Jesus doesn’t take sides; He takes over.

The starting block for people who are going to stay in love is mutual submission.

Imagine a world where unbelievers were critical of what we believed but envious of how well we treated one another.

It takes a habit to break a habit. You can pray every day for a generous heart, but until you start acting in that direction, nothing’s going to change.

Without courage we will simply accumulate a collection of good ideas and regrets.

You cannot communicate complicated information to large groups of people. As you increase the number of people, you have to decrease the complexity of the information.

You have no idea the numbers of people that God may want to influence through you.

You can’t resist the will of God and receive the grace of God at the same time.

Stop looking for solutions to problems and start looking for the right path.

I can’t make people fall in love with Jesus, but I can arrange dates.

Success is remaining faithful to the process God has laid out for you.

To avoid pain, they avoid pleasure. To avoid death, they avoid life.

If you fight with all your might, there is a chance of life; where as death is certain if you cling to your corner.

But a kingdom that has once been destroyed can never come again into being; nor can the dead ever be brought back to life.

We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.

Life is short, we never when it’ll be our last breath.

Loneliness is a black hole, a darkness, a frightening negative state almost like death.

There is no life to be found in violence. Every act of violence brings us closer to death.

Death is easier than a wretched life; and better never to have born than to live and fare badly.
