“The Gospel is the proclaimed restoration of unity with a humble God who not only died to cleanse us from sins but rose again in power to live out His life through us and restore righteousness on the earth.”
― Robby Dawkins, Do What Jesus Did: A Real-Life Field Guide to Healing the Sick, Routing Demons and Changing Lives Forever

“Moses warned the Israelites that they would be in greater danger when they entered the Promised Land than they were in the wilderness. What a warning for us today, especially those of us who live in places like the United States! We are in greater spiritual danger when we’re in abundance, safety, and peace than when we’re in need, peril, or distress. Most of us barely realize it, and this is why our faith is so weak. The worst sins”

“American Christians have often allowed the world to determine their view of power and privilege, rather than Scripture. This has created an Anglo Christianity that is increasingly affluent, suburban, and educated, yet functionally disconnected from non-Anglo populations. A multiethnic church will bring to American Christianity a new awareness of these issues from a biblical perspective so that the new people of God, the church, may truly reflect the diversity and equality inherent in the gospel.”

“These bold brothers and sisters weren’t just willing to live for Jesus; they were willing to die for him. I asked myself—as I have a thousand times since—Why are so few of us in America willing to live for Jesus when others are so willing to die for him? Seeing Jesus through the eyes of the persecuted church transformed me.”
