“A wise steward of time learns to redeem his or her moments from the Bank of Today and invest them into the Bank of Eternity. Eternity knows nothing about the fleeting nature of time, and anything deposited there will be forever preserved.”
― Paul Chappell, Stewarding Life: One Lifetime, Limited Resources, Eternal Priorities

“the race is long—to finish first, first you must finish.”
― Garth Stein, Racing in the Rain: My Life as a Dog

“Satan will do all he can to destroy your time on Earth. If he can’t destroy it in sinful living, he will devour you by eating up your time with activities of no eternal value. Either way, the end result is the same—a wasted life.”
― Paul Chappell, Stewarding Life: One Lifetime, Limited Resources, Eternal Priorities

“What’s natural eventually turns inward to bring stability, but then the church becomes so stable that no one wants to grow anymore. People begin to guard the structure and programs already in place, so it is difficult to close out an older ministry, let alone start a new one.”
― Gary L. McIntosh, Taking Your Church to the Next Level: What Got You Here Won't Get You There
