“God is using your present circumstances to make you more useful for later roles in His unfolding story.”

If Jesus is here we are going to walk out of this place to live our lives to the glory of God the Father.

In the end, our worship is more about what we do than what we say.

If our worship isn’t visible, comprehensive and extravagant, the gospel we heard must have been tiny, empty and cheap.

If you have a story of grace, then you have a story of grace to tell.

If you’re waiting with God, waiting is okay. If you’re always waiting on God, you’ll be frustrated. God never seems to work at the speed that we want Him to.

Our scars are a witness to the world. They are apart of our story. Healed wounds that are symbols that God has restored us.

Who knows who’s waiting right now for one of us to invite them into God’s family?

The only wounds that define us are the wounds of Jesus Christ.

Advent is the season that can remind us God is working while we’re waiting and we’re really waiting with God.

You never lose by giving it all to Jesus.

Not going to give casual worship to a God of extravagant beauty and grace!

God is not a taker. God is a giver.

Every great thing requires a great sacrifice.

This is the residue of sin on planet earth. Things are broken. People are hurting. The night is here. Darkness is upon us. Yet shining in the night is a Savior, and He has come to shine on you.

Every Christian became a missionary the moment God breathed his Spirit into him or her.

God spoke to me.” Don’t let the voice of the darkness, tell you that you are not worth that God would not speak to you. Don’t let him tell you, you don’t matter. God spoke to you.

I’m often moved by the circumstances around some of my characters, but I don’t think I’ve actually cried watching myself.

Have you ever felt trapped in circumstances, then discovered that the only trap was your own lack of vision, lack of courage, or failure to see that you had better options?

We can let the circumstances of our lives harden us so that we become increasingly resentful and afraid, or we can let them soften us and make us kinder and more open to what scares us. We always have this choice.

When God doesn’t change a circumstance, He can change our hearts in knowing that He can change all things for the good.

Focus on your dream and do everything in your power. You have the power to change your life circumstances.

Never let a situation or circumstance define your life, no matter what it may be.

If you want to make a movie, make it. Don’t wait for a grant, don’t wait for the perfect circumstances, just make it.

Ambition is when you close the gap between your circumstances and expectations.
