God is loving us - you and me - this moment, just as we are and not as we should be.

Be daring enough to be different, humble enough to make mistakes, wild enough to be burnt in the fire of love, real enough to make others see how phony you are.

God loves you unconditionally, as you are and not as you should be, because nobody is as they should be.

To be alive is to be broken; to be broken is to stand in need of grace.

My deepest awareness of myself is that I am deeply loved by Jesus Christ and I have done nothing to earn it or deserve it.

A saint is not someone who is good but who experiences the goodness of God.

In every encounter we either give life or we drain it; there is no neutral exchange.

To live by grace means to acknowledge my whole life story, the light side and the dark. In admitting my shadow side I learn who I am and what God's grace means.

Jesus comes not for the super-spiritual but for the wobbly and the weak-kneed who know they don’t have it all together, and who are not too proud to accept the handout of amazing grace.

Our identity rests in God's relentless tenderness for us revealed in Jesus Christ.

In Love's service, only wounded soldiers can serve.

The truth feels like it hurts, yet actually it builds. A lie feels like it builds, yet actually it hurts.

No one, at night, really believes he'll live forever.

No one is strong in his own strength, but he is safe by the grace and mercy of God.

I can say this: They [Iran] have total disregard for our country. They are the number one terrorist state, they are sending money all over the place, and weapons, and you can't do that.

It is probably safe to say that over a long period of time, political morality has been as high as business morality.

Leaders have power, but power is safe only in the hands of those who humble themselves to serve.

The importance of the Bible to a church is to keep the church on track. The role of the Constitution in government is to keep the government on track.

Give us courage for your easy burden, so to live untaxed lives.

You should always go to other people's funerals, otherwise, they won't come to yours.
