The Church Is In The Hope Business.

Art Is Built On The Deepest Themes Of Human Meaning: Good And Evil, Beauty And Ugliness, Life And Death, Love And Hate. No Other Story Has Incarnated Those Themes More Than The Story Of Jesus.

There Is Such A Love, A Love That Creates Value In What Is Loved. There Is A Love That Turns Rag Dolls Into Priceless Treasures. There Is A Love That Fastens Itself Onto Ragged Little Creatures, For Reasons That No One Could Ever Quite Figure Out, And Makes Them Precious And Valued Beyond Calculation. This Is Love Beyond Reason. This Is The Love Of God.

There Is No Way For A Human Being To Come To God That Does Not Involve Surrender.

God Has Entrusted Us With His Most Precious Treasure - People. He Asks Us To Shepherd And Mold Them Into Strong Disciples, With Brave Faith And Good Character.

Leadership Is The Art Of Disappointing People At A Rate They Can Stand.
