Prayer is beyond any question the highest activity of the human soul. Man is at his greatest and highest when upon his knees he comes face to face with God.

The Christian faith is ultimately not only a matter of doctrine or understanding or of intellect, it is a condition of the heart.

Always respond to every impulse to pray. The impulse to pray may come when you are reading or when you are battling with a text. I would make an absolute law of this: always obey such an impulse.

Faith is the refusal to panic.

The nearer a man gets to God, the greater he sees his sin.

Have you realized that most of your unhappiness in life is due to the fact that you are listening to yourself instead of talking to yourself?

There is nothing more foolish or self-defeating than for a Christian to say that he is not interested in doctrines.

The glory of the gospel is that when the church is absolutely different from the world, she invariably attracts it.

The ultimate test of our spirituality is the measure of our amazement at the grace of God.

Conviction is not repentance; conviction leads to repentance. But you can be convicted without repentance.

An unread book does nobody any good. Stories happen in the mind of a reader, not among symbols printed on a page.

We like to be out in nature so much because it has no opinion on us.

Quit aspiring and dreaming and start being.

How good is God! How sweet his yoke!

If you wanted to create an education environment that was directly opposed to what the brain was good at doing, you would probably design something like a classroom.

In media terms, the camera always lies, providing an edited version of reality.

Man has wants deeper than can be supplied by wealth or nature or domestic affections. His great relations are to his God and to eternity.

Faith idles when character shrivels.

The only prudence in life is concentration.

Works of Art can only be produc'd in Perfection where the Man is either in Affluence or is Above the Care of it.
