weekend people hours
I get one hour, really 25 minutes in a sermon on a weekend, to combat all the hours of the week that people are told you are what you have through billboards, commercials, and sitcoms, and so forth.
god christian religious
God's goal is not to get what you want; it is to get you what you need.
believe struggle years
People assume when they come into a church and see a person up there speaking, 'That person must be a good person.' My challenge through the years has been believing that: 'I guess I must be a really good person.' I struggle with it. It just helps me to keep that confessional posture.
heaven shining shots
You are heaven's Halley's comet; we have one shot at seeing you shine.
compassion expression church
Compassion in evangelical churches is out of balance. When I talk about it, I get a lot of glazed expressions.
elephants ears conservative
God is not troubled by one who is conservative or liberal, and He certainly never inclines His ear toward a donkey or an elephant.
stars people heaven
God will use whatever he wants to display his glory. Heavens and stars. History and nations. People and problems.

What is this love that endures decades, passes on sleep, and resists death to give one kiss? Call it agape love, a love that bears a semblance of God's.
generosity grace happens
When grace happens, generosity happens. Unsquashable, eyepopping bigheartedness happens.
home special maps
You are saved, not because of what you do, but because of what Christ did. And you are special, not because of what you do, but because of whose you are. And you are his. And because we are his, let's forget the shortcuts and stay on the main road. He knows the way. He drew the map. He knows the way home.
basketball children father
Parents, what are your children learning from your worship? Do they see the same excitement as when you go to a basketball game? Do they see you prepare for worship as you do for a vacation? Do they see you hungry to arrive, seeking the face of the Father? Or do they see you content to leave the way you came?.....They are watching. Believe me. They are watching.
mom fun dad
I was raised in the greatest of homes... just a really great dad, and I miss him so much... he was a good man, a real simple man... Very faithful, always loved my mom, always provided for the kids, and just a lot of fun.
fashion workplace can-do
You can do something no one else can do in a fashion no one else can do it.
