patience christian-inspirational waiting
The work that God does in us when we wait is usually more important than the thing for which we wait!
christian powerful temptation
Money is emphasized in Scripture simply because our temptation to love it is inexplicably powerful.
pain believe gods-faithfulness
Thanksgiving for God’s faithfulness in our pain is the indisputable proof that we believe God is a part of our pain.
christian hero world
Better to love God and die unknown than to love the world and be a hero.
emotional calm gods-will
Emotional peace and calm come after doing God's will and not before.
christian religious thinking
There is a clear intent to keep Christian thinking out of the mainstream of the media and the nation's political life.
christian religious mistake
Make no mistake about the intention of these secularists: It is to discredit the voice of Christians so that America will tolerate only one view.
use sovereign essentials
God in His sovereign goodness often uses the painful and at times debilitating injury of a spear thrower to make us readier for His service. ... One thing you discover about spear throwers is that though it’s not necessary for them to be good, it’s essential for them to appear good.
christian lying heart
The ability to make judgments lies at the heart of Christian living. Unless we are able to judge doctrine, lifestyles, and entertainment, unless we are able to distinguish between outer appearance and inner character, we just might miss the purpose for which God placed us on this earth. We might end up accepting a stone for bread and a snake for a fish.
eye hair color
We must distinguish between genes that cause physical characteristics, like the color of your eyes or hair, over which you have no control, and what we could call 'behavioral dispositions'. We are responsible for our behavior, no matter what those dispositions are.
christian sex thinking
I think that as Christians we need to walk the delicate balance between standing in opposition to same-sex marriages and yet showing that we can do that without becoming angry or hateful.
sex people support
We need a broad-based coalition that is way beyond the bounds of Christianity to be able to help people to understand that there is a groundswell of support for the marriage amendment and for opposition to same-sex marriages.
