Michael Reeves
“if God is not a Father, if he has no Son and will have no children, then he must be lonely, distant and unapproachable; if he is not triune and so not essentially loving, then no God at all just looks better.”
Michael Reeves, Delighting in the Trinity: An Introduction to the Christian Faith

Michael Reeves
“Creation is about the spreading, the diffusion, the outward explosion of that love. This God is the very opposite of greedy, hungry, selfish emptiness; in his self-giving he naturally pours forth life and goodness. He is, then, the source of all that is good, and that means he is not the sort of God who would call people to himself away from happiness in good things. Goodness and ultimate happiness are to be found with him, not apart from him.”
Michael Reeves, Delighting in the Trinity: An Introduction to the Christian Faith

“Never be afraid to try something new. Remember professionals built the Titanic but an amateur built the ark.”
Father Brown

Michael Reeves
“The wrath of the triune God is exactly the opposite of a character blip or a nasty side in him. It is the proof of the sincerity of his love, that he truly cares. His love is not mild-mannered and limp; it is livid, potent and committed. And therein lies our hope: through his wrath the living God shows that he is truly loving, and through his wrath he will destroy all devilry that we might enjoy him in a purified world, the home of righteousness.”
Michael Reeves, Delighting in the Trinity: An Introduction to the Christian Faith

Dave Harvey
“Serving in obscurity can do more to shape a future leader than a dozen years of combing evangelicalism for the perfect position.”
Dave Harvey, Am I Called?: The Summons To Pastoral Ministry
