By the grace of God, may we commit to serving Jesus—not just when it’s easy, but when it’s hard. —Bill Crowder
The first thing I ask is that people should not make use of my name, and should not call themselves Lutherans but Christians. What is Luther? The teaching is not mine. Nor was I crucified for anyone…How did I, poor stinking bag of maggots that I am, come to the point where people call the children of Christ by my evil name? – Martin Luther
When Jesus Christ asked little children to come to him, he didn’t say only rich children, or White children, or children with two-parent families, or children who didn’t have a mental or physical handicap. He said, “Let all children come unto me. – Marian Wright Edelman
I do not understand the mystery of grace—only that it meets us where we are, but does not leave us where it found us. – Anne Lamott, author
Prayer is the breath of the new creature. – Richard Baxter
Whatever makes men good Christians, makes them good citizens. – Daniel Webster
We are the Bibles the world is reading; We are the creeds the world is needing; We are the sermons the world is heeding. – Billy Graham

The moral and religious system which Jesus Christ transmitted to us is the best the world has ever seen, or can see. – Benjamin Franklin
Christians believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God because He said so. – C.S. Lewis
… I pledge allegiance to the Christian flag and to the Savior, for whose Kingdom it stands, one Savior, crucified, risen, and coming again, with life and liberty for all who believe. – Dan Quayle
Christianity is not a theory or speculation, but a life; not a philosophy of life, but a life and a living process. – Samuel Taylor Coleridge
We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair. – II Corinthians 4:8
Peace of heart that is won by refusing to bear the common yoke of human sympathy is a peace unworthy of a Christian. To seek tranquility by stopping our ears to the cries of human pain is to make ourselves not Christian but a kind of degenerate stoic having no relation either to stoicism or Christianity. – A.W. Tozer
If you examined a hundred people who had lost their faith in Christianity, I wonder how many of them would turn out to have reasoned out of it by honest argument? Do not most people simply drift away? – C.S. Lewis
I believe in Christianity as I believe that the Sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else. – C.S. Lewis
Committing to Jesus completely and totally is not tough, but impossible without the inner working of the Holy Spirit.
Wes, The smartest thing I ever did was invite Jesus into my heart and the Holy Spirit into my world. I was thinking the other day what an absolute heart-breaking shame it is that they took Bible reading out of schools. There are so many children who could find their way to Christ is they were given the chance.
