writing godly people
My parents, they were good, godly people, but they never said, You need to write.
writing guy other-guys
I co-pastor now, so I preach six months, then another guy preaches six months. So that's really why I'm preparing for January, because I'll finish in June; then I'll be writing and doing other projects for the rest of the year.
writing people singing
If you get a lot of good feedback from people, thats a sign that you have a strength or gift in writing, if not ... try singing.
country writing boys
I noticed people would read these short articles I was assigned to write for our church bulletin and they would say, Boy, thats good stuff. I got letters from people around the country saying, Thats really good. And I thought, Is it really?
people sovereignty sovereignty-of-god
What I'm urging people to do is trust in the sovereignty of God.
people grace identity
I wanted to talk about how grace in and of itself changes us. It changes the way we treat other people, the way we view our lives, the way we treat our purpose and our eternal identity.

Thats usually what I gravitate to, I read The Perfect Storm, then I read Into Thin Air .
perspective people trying
From my perspective, most of my life has been dealing with the day-to-day, kitchen-to-bedroom-to-living-room-to-garage life with people. Most people are just trying to figure out how to love the people in their world, to love their God and to deal with some of these questions about God.
affair good-god mankind
We serve a good God who oversees the affairs of mankind.

I've never disclosed for whom I'm voting.

Very, very rarely will I leave San Antonio to speak somewhere else. I used to do that, and it just about wore me out, so I quit traveling.

Theres some inherently unique characteristics of Christianity, the chief of which is that Christianity teaches that we are saved by what Christ has done for us, instead of we are saved by what we do for God.
grace christianity salvation
Christianity teaches salvation by grace through faith, every other religion teaches salvation through works and merit.
daughter book holiday
The book on my nightstand right now isnt anything that inspired me, but it entertained me. I read a book on Labor Day, it was a holiday, and I have three daughters, and we all went to the shopping mall and I sat on the bench and read a book while they shopped, it was called The Greatest Golfer there Ever Was, it was a great book, easy to read and entertaining.
