Passion is the degree of difficulty we are willing to endure to accomplish the goal.

The Gospel is not about going from bad to good, it's about going from dead to alive!

Every Christian became a missionary the moment God breathed his Spirit into him or her.

God is huge! He is ginormous! He is greater than every thought we have ever had of Him.

The word advent means "expectation." What advent can do for us is create a sense of hope.

You don't have to know everything about the mountain in front of you to take the next step

Nothing steals God's glory more than worrying believers who are driven through life by fear

Humility is not a character trait to develop, it's the natural by-product of being with Jesus.

Christ didn't die just so you could make to heaven; He lives so you can make it through earth!

We get into captivity because of our foolishness and we are more foolish that we want to admit.

God isn't waiting on our memo. He is waiting on us to focus enough on Him that we get His memo.

Worry and worship cannot exist in the same space. One always displaces the other. Choose worship.

Quit trying to do what I already know you can't do and let Christ do what only He can through you.

God’s words trump all opinions, including mine, and in the end, I believe God’s words lead to life.

It's not the elements of our worship that are awesome. It's the object of our worship Who is awesome.

God doesn't call people to a job description, He calls people to Himself and His mission in the world.

God is using your present circumstances to make you more useful for later roles in His unfolding story.

The Father doesn't give life directions in one big bundle because the goal is knowing Him, not the plan.

We are responsible for our captivity to sin. In our foolishness, we forget God. However, God intervenes!

If Jesus is here we are going to walk out of this place to live our lives to the glory of God the Father.

Sin doesn't make us bad, sin makes us dead. The gospel doesn't make us better, the gospel makes us alive.

It's a big world. Don't get trapped by tiny dreams and feeble problems. Time for big prayers and bold faith.

It doesn't really matter how rich you are, we're all just renting here on earth! It all belongs to the Lord.

Advent is the season that can remind us God is working while we're waiting and we're really waiting with God.

Mere nails, though pounded deep, were not enough to keep Jesus on the cross. But love was... and love prevailed.

God had a heartbeat for 18-25 years old...the vast majority of whom don't have a clue why they are on this planet.

Whenever you say 'yes' to anything, there is less of you for something else. Make sure your 'yes' is worth the less.

Worship starts with seeing something great and then reflecting it to the world. Let's see God so we can reflect God.

When the enemy comes with shame and blame, tell him to go measure the distance from east to west and get back to you.

God's purposes and plans will not fail. Before you spend all your prayer time telling Him about yours, ask about His.

There is a direct correlation between your appreciation of what Christ has done for you and the expression of worship

If our worship isn't visible, comprehensive and extravagant, the gospel we heard must have been tiny, empty and cheap.

Why are all Christians happy and praising Jesus? It's because we are not DEAD! We may be imperfect, but we aren't DEAD!

Simply by our proximity to Jesus, we can bring hope and life to people and places trapped in discouragement and despair.

Gratitude grows from a seed called grace. If you're not grateful you might still be trying to earn what God freely gives.

Don't overcomplicate God's will. Just stay connected to Jesus. Love Him. Look into His eyes. He will lead. Follow. Repeat.

It's horrifying and absurd to think that there are currently more slaves on earth than at any other time in human history.

Our scars are a witness to the world. They are apart of our story. Healed wounds that are symbols that God has restored us.

Accept the fact that you're never gonna be someone else and embrace the fact that the world needs you as God made you to be.

We may say we value this thing or that thing more than any other, but the volume of our actions speaks louder than our words.

As long as we are faking it we are just showing the world how to fake it - but they already are! They want to see us get real.

Worship is our response to what we value most. As a result, worship fuels our actions, becoming the driving force of all we do.

Life comes from death. To the degree that I can live in the death of Jesus - to that degree I can channel God's life to others.

Even if we don't see it, God is always working underneath the surface, behind the scenes and orchestrating His plans and purposes.

Yet, Jesus is selfless in the way He gives His life away for you. So if your gaze is on Him, you will treat others as He is treating you.

The Word of God isn't for one particular season. It's for every season. But in its specific application, it's best read from Thanksgiving to Christmas.

Your life may be messed and your foolishness may have put you into captivity but Jesus can do the whatever it is that is immeasurably more in your life.

Worship is our response, both personal and corporate, to God for who He is, and what He has done; expressed in and by the things we say and the way we live.

If you're waiting with God, waiting is okay. If you're always waiting on God, you'll be frustrated. God never seems to work at the speed that we want Him to.

God is always seeking you. Every sunset. Every clear blue sky. Each ocean wave. The starry hosts of night. He blankets each new day with the invitation, ‘I am here.’
