Some Great Quotes

"Sometimes 'no compromise' means no compensation." (Jason Upton)

"Grace is fierce." (Laurie Skelton)

"A Christian is the one who, wherever he looks, finds Christ and rejoices in Him. This joy transforms all his human plans and programs, decisions and actions, making all his mission the sacrament of the world’s return to Him who is the life of the world."

A. Schmemann

"How do we follow him? Live loved. Live free. Live gently with others and let Jesus take care of the fall-out. If we live only to avoid conflict, we may find ourselves avoiding him. I liked what Martin Luther said: 'Peace if possible, but truth at any rate.'"
(Wayne Jacobsen)

Security is mostly a superstition.
It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it.
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure.
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.
(Helen Keller)

"Courage doesn’t always roar, sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, 'I will try again tomorrow.'"
(Mary Ann Radmacher)

“May all your expectations be frustrated, may all your plans be thwarted, may all your desires be withered into nothingness, that you may experience the powerlessness and poverty of a child and sing and dance in the love of God who is Father, Son, and Spirit.”
(Larry Hem)
