Mark Batterson
“You can’t make a difference without making waves, and some people in the boat won’t like it. So be it. Rock the boat anyway.”
Mark Batterson, Play the Man: Becoming the Man God Created You to Be

“Today, you and I are 99 percent wrong about everyone we hold opinions about. That figure may be low, but I know I’m close. In our growing sense of Compassion, such as we would like leveled at ourselves, let us respect the human beings around us enough to see what lies beneath that which our stubborn, blind minds and made-up thoughts insist they already have pegged. See. Then re-see. Then re-re-see. Again and again and again, until you know their real name and feel their story like you hope they’ll feel yours. Then we will know Love and Compassion and the reason so many stories in the Bible are of Jesus healing eyes.”
Steve Daugherty, Experiments in Honesty: Meditations on Love, Fear and the Honest to God Naked Truth

Will Davis Jr.
“Desperation yields dependency, and dependency yields power. And as you decrease your earthly abilities through sacrifice and embracing less, you’ll see your spiritual fruit increase.”
Will Davis Jr., Enough: Finding More by Living with Less

“Compassion is an astoundingly, frustratingly affirming force. It Loves the other enough to find beauty and meaning in what the rest of us lazily judge as good or bad. Ahava Love, the brand that has the other’s interests more in view than its own preferences being perfectly tended to, searches and finds the thing to celebrate.”
Steve Daugherty, Experiments in Honesty: Meditations on Love, Fear and the Honest to God Naked Truth

C.S. Lewis
“It comes the very moment you wake up each morning. All your wishes and hopes for the day rush at you like wild animals. And the first job each morning consists simply in shoving them all back; in listening to that other voice, taking that other point of view, letting that other larger, stronger, quieter life come flowing in. And so on, all day. Standing back from all your natural fussings and frettings; coming in out of the wind.”
C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
