Today we are apt to downplay or disregard the importance of good thinking to strong faith; and some, disastrously, even regard thinking as opposed to faith.

The most important thing in your life is not what you do; it's who you become. That's what you will take into eternity.

We don't believe something by merely saying we believe it, or even when we believe that we believe it. We believe something when we act as if it were true.

Discipleship is the process of becoming who Jesus would be if he were you.

Ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life.

Every church needs to be able to answer two questions. First, what is our plan for making disciples? And second, does our plan work?

One of the hardest things in the world is to be right and not hurt other people with it.

Few people arise in the morning as hungry for God as they are for cornflakes or toast and eggs.

The main thing God gets out of your life is not the achievements you accomplish. It's the person you become.

The key, then, to loving God is to see Jesus, to hold him before the mind with as much fullness and clarity as possible. It is to adore him.

The aim of spiritual formation is not behavior modification but the transformation of all those aspects of you and me where behavior comes from...Circumcision of the heart.

If we wish for peace, we must pray for one another.

I wanted to give you a victory. But by their essential nature triumphs can’t be given.

There is no such thing as a regrettable act of courage.

When you get in the pocket, there is a place where the music begins to play itself. When you can find that spot, it's the best feeling in the world.

One fan asked me to sign their sock. That was crazy. They just took off their shoe and handed me their sock and asked if I'd sign it.

In the beginning there was the word. The word was Jah. The word is in I, Jah is in I. I make what is good, better, and what is better, best. I follow this in every aspect of life.

I want to feel something, as a person. I don't want to be bored.

People who disagree on important issues don't agree on the facts.

What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare.

Small disconnected facts, if you take note of them, have a way of becoming connected.
