“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.”

I used to think you had to be special for God to use you, but now I know you simply need to say yes.

Grace draws a circle around everyone and says they’re in.

I don’t think success is what we’ve made of ourselves; I think it’s what we’ve made of others.

My best friend and I love to make fish faces.

You don’t want to pick a fight with just the guy at the deli, [you want to] pick a fight somewhere in the world and just run towards it. Run because the fight is going to go on without you if you miss it.

The way we treat people we disagree with most is a report card on what we’ve learned about love.

Do less of what you’re terrible at and more of what you’re good at. I don’t know if that sounds too simple, but it’s been working for me.

God makes confetti out of our titles and accomplishments to celebrate the poor and the humble.

One guy just kept asking me and asking me in an interview, and I kept saying, “I just got done telling you no, there’s nothing to report.”

If we pick recognition over influence we’ll be known for all the wrong stuff.

No one leads people to Jesus; He leads people to Himself. All the pressure’s off; just go love everybody without agenda.

That’s all the information I need to know about the church, Jesus picked it. And so instead of me telling the church how she would really look better if she had this in her hair, or that over there, I think I’m just respecting the Groom’s pick.

Love God, love your neighbors, and do stuff!

We can’t always see people’s pain; they can always feel our love.

Fear will give us a reason not to try; hope will give us a reason not to listen.

See people for who they’re becoming. Not who they were.

There is no error so monstrous that it fails to find defenders among the ablest men.

Everyone should fail in a big way at least once before reaching forty.

As long as you gave it your best shot, even if in the opinion of others ‘you failed,’ you didn’t fail.

Pop culture hales you and wants you to fail.

When all else fails, read the instructions.

I’m waiting for the time when I fail

If all else fails, you can always be a pro.

You have to be able to fail with the improv. You have to not care.
