But God doesn't call us to be comfortable. He calls us to trust Him so completely
that we are unafraid to put ourselves in situations where we will be in trouble if He doesn't come through.
Our greatest fear should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that don't really matter.
The irony is that while God doesn’t need us but still wants us, we desperately need God but don’t really want Him most of the time.
God's definition of what matters is pretty straightforward. He measures our lives by how we love.
Lukewarm people don't really want to be saved from their sin; they want only to be saved from the penalty of their sin.
We need to stop giving people excuses not to believe in God. You've probably heard the expression 'I believe in God, just not organized religion'. I don't think people would say that if the church truly lived like we are called to live.
Something is wrong when our lives make sense to unbelievers.
Christians are like manure: spread them out and they help everything grow better, but keep them in one big pile and they stink horribly.
