The scariest kind of compromise with sin is the unnoticed one.
People rarely fall away from following Jesus quickly.
The road of apostasy is paved by small, unrepented sins that callous the heart toward God.
Lord, let us never find comfort with any degree of abiding sin.

When you gather to worship, you don't need to ask God to join you. He's already present, on his throne, prepared to encounter you!
Sin says it just wants a little.
A little here, a little there, but always a little more.
Sin is never satisfied until it has all of you.

Invest more in your walk with God than your work for God.
If you do the first, the second will take care of itself.
Be thankful for church buildings that are a little too loud because they're filled with the noise of young people.
Because, the silence in a church building from a lack of young people is deafening.
Christian young adults and teenagers are not the 'future of the church'.
If they've been bought by the blood of Jesus and have the Holy Spirit; they are the church right now!
Disciple them, equip them, and empower them to be the church... now!

People often withhold forgiveness because they fear it means condoning someone’s actions.
However, forgiveness does not mean approval. It means acknowledging that what was done was wrong while choosing to release the burden of bitterness, trusting God to be the ultimate Judge.
In many cases, forgiveness is more for your benefit than for theirs.

Self-help doesn't solve spiritual problems. If "self" is the problem, then “self" can't be the solution.
You need Someone outside of "self", His name is Jesus.
Discomfort drives us to lean on God.
Too often we begin something with God, but don't finish. But it's often at the end that God does his best work! Persevere!
Your purpose is not to “believe in yourself”. Your purpose is to believe in Someone bigger than yourself.
His name is JESUS.
I'm learning so much through these trials that I'll be able to teach people the rest of my life.
The purpose of life:
Know Jesus.
Make Jesus known.
Praise God in all circumstances.
Prayer is incredible! How amazing that when you face a crisis in your life you can actually talk with almighty God about it!
You can never out-give the Giver.
If you stay distant from your Bible,
you’ll feel distant from God.
If you stay close to your Bible,
you’ll feel close to God.
The hardest thing in the world is watching someone you love suffer and not being able to do anything to alleviate it.
God's yes is not a maybe.
