“Some people go through their whole life free on the outside but prisoners in their hearts, enslaved to sin and bondage. These men face the most miserable existence possible inside prison, but on the inside they are as free as birds gliding over the mountain tops!”
― Paul Hattaway, The Heavenly Man: The remarkable true story of Chinese Christian Brother Yun

― Rifqa Bary, Hiding in the Light: Why I Risked Everything to Leave Islam and Follow Jesus

“You were made to do good— to mirror and mimic what God is like to the world. To stand at the interface between the Creator and his creation, implementing God’s creative, generous blessing over all the earth and giving voice to the creation’s worship.”
― John Mark Comer, Garden City: Work, Rest, and the Art of Being Human.

“I tell you the truth, unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.” John 12:24–25.”
― Paul Hattaway, The Heavenly Man: The remarkable true story of Chinese Christian Brother Yun
