Henri J.M. Nouwen
“Christian life is not a life divided between times for action and times for contemplation. No. Real social action is a way of contemplation, and real contemplation is the core of social action.”
Henri J.M. Nouwen

“You need to use the instrument that the people desire to captivate them back to things that are right”
Sunday Adelaja
