United Prayer

Take Work Seriously

If a man takes work really seriously - the concept of work in and of itself - it provides him with dignity and self-respect, meaning, and purpose in life. ~ Carl Carlson

He Is Risen

"The joyful news that He is risen does not change the contemporary world. Still before us lie work, discipline, sacrifice. But the fact of Easter gives us the spiritual power to do the work, accept the discipline, and make the sacrifice." ~ Henry Knox Sherrill

Jesus Resurrection Gives...

"The resurrection gives my life meaning and direction and the opportunity to start over no matter what my circumstances." ~ Robert Flatt

“I do not understand the mystery of grace -- only that it meets us where we are and does not leave us where it found us.” ~ Anne Lamott

Passion for Justice and Mercy

How do I live out a passion for justice and mercy in ways that actually make things better for people over time? ~ Jedd Medefind

Loved As You Are...

My trust in God flows out of the experience of his loving me, day in and day out, whether the day is stormy or fair, whether I'm sick or in good health, whether I'm in a state of grace or disgrace. He comes to me where I live and loves me as I am. 

~ Brennan Manning

Truth Is Tough

Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at evening. 

~ Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.

Lifetime Process

“God doesn’t expect perfect actions in a parent, because He realizes that becoming Christlike is a lifetime process.” 

~ Jorie Kincaid 

Wedding Gift

One of the best wedding gifts God gave you was a full-length mirror called your spouse. Had there been a card attached, it would have said, "Here's to helping you discover what you're really like!" 

~ Gary and Betsy Ricucci

Greatest Test

"Marriage is the greatest test in the world…but now I welcome the test instead of dreading it. It is much more than a test of sweetness of temper, as people sometimes think; it is a test of the whole character and affects every action."

~ T.S. Eliot

Greatest Obstacle

"The greatest obstacle to faith is not doubt, but faith in yourself. Faith renounces self-reliance." ~ Nancy Wolgemuth

Who Are You?

"What we do on some great occasion will probably depend on what we already are; and what we are will be the result of previous years of self-discipline." ~ H. P. Liddon

Christian Disciples

He [Christ] did not seem to mean that Christian disciples should not suffer, but that in all conditions they should have the victory–Stephen might die, but it would be victory; Paul might be forsaken by all as he stands at Nero's tribunal, but it would be a place of sounding forth the gospel unto victory. ~ Phineas Bresee

Don't Play Church

I'd rather have ten people that want God than ten thousand people who want to play church. ~ Leonard Ravenhill

Right Relationship

Justice infers a right relationship between human beings. There has to be mercy... love... caring for one another. ~ Sean Litton

Not a Popularity Contest

If you want to be popular, preach happiness. If you want to be unpopular, preach holiness. ~ Leonard Ravenhill

The Tragedy

The tragedy of this last hour is that we have too many dead men in the pulpits giving out too many dead sermons to too many dead people. ~ Leonard Ravenhill

What Are You Afraid Of?

We live in a day when we are more afraid of holiness than we are of sinfulness! ~ Leonard Ravenhill

Can't Offend...

You can't offend a man that's filled with the Spirit... ~ Leonard Ravenhill

No Compromise

One compromise here, another there and soon enough the so-called Christian and the man in the world look the same. ~ A.W. Tozer

Not Satisfied with Smoke

Once you've been in the flame you'll never be satisfied in the smoke. ~ Leonard Ravenhill

To It and Through It
