“Jesus’ Great Commission can just as well be translated: Since you are going into all the world anyway, why not take the gospel with you? (Matthew 28:19). GOD”
― Calvin Miller, A Hunger for the Holy: Nuturing Intimacy with Christ

“THE PUZZLE IS WHY SO MANY PEOPLE LIVE so badly. Not so wickedly, but so inanely. Not so cruelly, but so stupidly. There is little to admire and less to imitate in the people who are prominent in our culture. We have celebrities but not saints. Famous entertainers amuse a nation of bored insomniacs. Infamous criminals act out the aggressions of timid conformists. Petulant and spoiled athletes play games vicariously for lazy and apathetic spectators. People, aimless and bored, amuse themselves with trivia and trash. Neither the adventure of goodness nor the pursuit of righteousness gets headlines.”
― Eugene H. Peterson, Run with the Horses: The Quest for Life at Its Best

“CHRIST’S LIFE ILLUSTRATES PLAINLY THAT THE CROWN OF VICTORY IS FORGED FROM THE GOLD OF OBEDIENCE.”
― Calvin Miller, A Hunger for the Holy: Nuturing Intimacy with Christ

“When we are at our wits' end for an answer, then the Holy Spirit can give us an answer. But how can He give us an answer when we are still well supplied with all sorts of answers of our own?”
― Karl Barth
