sports car soul
What the new mate, sports car, or unexpected check could never do, Christ says, "I Can." You'll love how he achieves it. He reconnects your soul with God.
justice guarantees retribution
Forgiveness doesn't diminish justice; it just entrusts it to God. He guarantees the right retribution.
book classic christianity
I was about 21 when I read that [Mere Christianity], and my faith was really being shaken during those days. Its a great, classic book.
butterfly light may
Demanding respect is like chasing a butterfly. Chase it, and you'll never catch it. Sit still, and it may light on your shoulder.
christmas imagination logic
Christmas is best pondered, not with logic, but with imagination.
wisdom fall perspective
Answer the big question of eternity, and the little questions of life fall into perspective.
want today tomorrow
Today's belief is tomorrow's behavior. If you want to be happier person tomorrow, sow seeds of happiness today.

God's delight is received upon surrender, not awarded upon conquest.
volunteer donation torture

water car risk
The step between prudence and paranoia is short and steep. Prudence wears a seat belt. Paranoia avoids cars. Prudence washes with soap. Paranoia avoids human contact. Prudence saves for old age. Paranoia hoards even trash. Prudence prepares and plans, paranoia panics. Prudence calculates the risk and takes the plunge. Paranoia never enters the water.
matter ends ifs
If relationships matter most then [at the end of our lives], shouldn't they matter most now?
book mean writing
I think theres just this mystique of writing a book that appeals to people. A person has to really check their motives and say, Am I really being called by God to do this? Or is this just something that would look neat in my funeral? I dont mean to be harsh but I think a person really needs to, so they wont be disappointed.
