“Our greatest fear as individuals and as a church should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that don’t really matter.”
― Francis Chan, The Francis Chan Collection: Crazy Love, Forgotten God, Erasing Hell, and Multiply

“And like our Savior, who poured out His life and blood so we have reason to rejoice, we were made to lay down our lives and give until it hurts. We are most alive when we are loving and actively giving of ourselves because we were made to do these things. It is when we live like this that the Spirit of God moves and acts in and through us in ways that on our own we are not capable of. This is our purpose for living. This is our hope.”
― Francis Chan, The Francis Chan Collection: Crazy Love, Forgotten God, Erasing Hell, and Multiply

“Mankind is the creation of God. You are made in his image—not a physical image, since God is not a physical being. You are made in his spiritual image in that you can be rational, think, love, hate, make choices, and such. This is why all people should be shown respect…because they reflect God’s image.”
― Matt Slick, The Influence

“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-”
