“If missions languish, it is because the whole life of godliness is feeble. The command to go everywhere and preach to everybody is not obeyed until the will is lost by self-surrender in the will of God. Living, praying, giving and going will always be found together.”
Arthur T. Pierson

“A HUMAN life, filled with the presence and power of God, is one of God's choicest gifts to His church and to the world.”
Arthur Tappan Pierson, George Müller of Bristol And His Witness to a Prayer-Hearing God

“where a state church exists, the ministry of the Gospel is apt to be treated as a human profession rather than as a divine vocation, and so the standards of fitness often sink to the low secular level, and the main object in view becomes the so-called "living," which is, alas, too frequently independent of holy living.”
Arthur Tappan Pierson, George Müller of Bristol And His Witness to a Prayer-Hearing God
