You can't meet Jesus and not change. If you haven't changed, you haven't met the real Jesus.
There are some women who are a good time and there are some women who are a good legacy.
Gentleman, it is a terrifying thing for a woman to trust a sinful man.
The only thing worse than dying is living a boring life.
We need to pay attention to the questions non-Christians are asking, and the conversations that Christians are having.
Sin is not just action. It's life direction.
Spirituality, without the Holy Spirit, is demonic.
Because we worship our way into sin, ultimately we need to worship our way out. When Christians commit sin, they do not cease worshiping. Rather, their worship is directed away from the Creator and toward created things. Repentance is the act of turning from sin and returning to God by trusting in Jesus Christ who is the perfect worshiper.
Fear is vision without hope.
I am not ashamed of the Gospel.
Everything in the service needs to preach - architecture, lighting, songs, prayers, fellowship, the smell - it all preaches. All five senses must be engaged to experience God.
We're not to follow our hearts, we're to guard our hearts.
One of the most astonishing things about Jesus is that as God he actually chose to come into our fallen, sick, twisted, unjust, evil, cruel, painful world and be with us to suffer like us and for us. Meanwhile, we spend most of our time trying to figure out how to avoid the pain and evil of this world while reading dumb books about the rapture just hoping to get out.
Who you think you are is what compels you to do what you do!
