“I don’t know every step I’m supposed to take. I think Jesus just wants me to take the next step.”

When you are in high school, you don’t give much thought to what you can’t do. For most people, that gets learned later, and for still fewer, gets unlearned for the rest of life.

I’m all for getting together with men and women in small groups around Scripture and letting it just wash over us, but for me, I’ve been meeting with the same ten guys for like 15 years now, but we don’t have a Bible study every Friday, we have a Bible doing.

We can be the light of the world without leaving our high beams on and annoying everybody.

The teachers I’ve learned the most from, didn’t think they were teaching me; they just thought we were friends.

Every time we see people as ordinary, we turn the wine back into water.

Living a life fully engaged in full of whimsy and the kind of things that love does is something most people plan to do, but along the way they just kind of forget.

God’s grace comes in all shapes, sizes, and circumstances as God continues to unfold something magnificent in me.

God wants us to kick it down. Or perhaps just sit outside of it long enough until somebody tells us we can come in.

God finds us in the holes we dig for ourselves. We see failures; He sees foundations.

Love like there’s no tomorrow; live like there’s no yesterday. We’re forgiven; now go love people like we believe it

When you love people like Jesus, you get messy. But messy looks good on you!

The battle for our hearts is fought on the pages of our calendar.

Selfless love is always costly; fear can’t afford it, pride doesn’t understand it and friends never forget it.

The way we love people we disagree with is the best evidence of what we really believe.

Something happens when you feel ownership. You no longer act like a spectator or consumer, because you’re an owner. Faith is at its best when it’s that way too. It’s best lived when it’s owned.

I used to be afraid of failing at something that really mattered to me, but now I’m more afraid of succeeding at things that don’t matter.
