God and You
December 3, 2008
“As long as you have a personal interest in your own character, or any set ambition, you cannot get through into identification with God’s interests. You can only get there by losing for ever any idea of yourself and by letting God take you right out into His purpose for the world, and because your goings are of the Lord, you can never understand your ways.” Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest

The Trouble with Sermons
October 24, 2008
“The trouble with many sermons is not so much that the preachers are out of touch with what is going on in the world or in books or in theology but that they are out of touch with what is going on in their own lives and in the lives of the people they are preaching to.” Frederick Buechner, The Longing for Home, pp. 173-74
The Path of Faith
October 23, 2008
“Don’t worry about the future–worry quenches the work of grace within you. When God gives you comfort, enjoy it. Look at Him continually. Enjoy His provision day by day as the Israelites received their manna.” Fenelon, The Seeking Heart, p. 161
