“If only everyone could know we’ve been created by and for God! If only we could all comprehend that we’re precious to Him, housing mirrored souls designed to reflect His glory.”

Advent allows us to recover during this four-week journey. It begins four Sundays before Christmas all the way up to Christmas. It lets us breath in those moments of faithfulness and helps us recognize that God is working.

The Gospel is not about going from bad to good, it’s about going from dead to alive!

We are responsible for our captivity to sin. In our foolishness, we forget God. However, God intervenes!

Passion is the degree of difficulty we are willing to endure to accomplish the goal.

When we are foolish God intervenes.

You don’t have to know everything about the mountain in front of you to take the next step.

If you’ve been served by God, you’ve arrived.

God is coming to intersect us in our funeral processions.

Sin has a way of shrinking God down and puffing ourselves up.

It’s a big world. Don’t get trapped by tiny dreams and feeble problems. Time for big prayers and bold faith.

Nothing steals God’s glory more than worrying believers who are driven through life by fear.

Christ didn’t die just so you could make to heaven; He lives so you can make it through earth!

Limit your thinking and expectation today to only the things God can do.

Accept the fact that you’re never gonna be someone else and embrace the fact that the world needs you as God made you to be.

God always gets the glory when Jesus comes.

Gratitude grows from a seed called grace. If you’re not grateful you might still be trying to earn what God freely gives.

Daddy taught us through his philosophy of nonviolence, which placed love at the centerpiece, that through that love we can turn enemies into friends. Through that love, we can create more dignified atmospheres.

The industry has changed. Two years ago I could tell a company I’ve got Russell Crowe and that would get the film made. Now they’d ask ‘And who’s the girl?’ Just one famous face isn’t enough any more.

When you strip all of this down it’s just about a God in Heaven who loves you very much. And created in you a heart for Him, Your heart was fashioned by Jesus and for Jesus.

The truth is that brains have little to do with either the making or accumulating of money.

Why then should money be blamed for all the dirt and crimes it causes? For is love less filthy – love which creates life?

Over all crowds there seems to float a vague distress, an atmosphere of pervasive melancholy, as if any large gathering of people creates an aura of terror and pity.

Let us create extraordinary words, on condition that they be put to the most ordinary use and that the entity they designate be made to exist in the same way as the most common object.

To exist is to change, to change is to mature, to mature is to go on creating oneself endlessly.
