What I admire about the modern atheist is not at all his logic, but rather his gift of imagination. There will always be the cartoon versions of Christianity further perpetuated by the extremist atheists who do not possess the humility to ask real sc...
It often seems as though the silent, humble servant is secretly wiser and more discerning than the haughty master; yet through dutiful (and sometimes insecure) surrender he continues to serve and carry out petty orders in loyal acquiesce.
Maturity is when you're able to say, 'It's not just them. It's me.
God wants us to humbly and sincerely ask him things. How often do you enjoy people talking about you without taking the time to get to know you?
Where everyone wants to be a leader, it makes one a follower to want to be a leader, and a leader to know what to follow.
My confidence is in the idea that I may be wrong on this or that. No man in this life should ever have to bear the burden of perfection.
God judges men from the inside out; men judge men from the outside in. Perhaps to God, an extreme mental patient is doing quite well in going a month without murder, for he fought his chemical imbalance and succeeded; oppositely, perhaps the healthy,...

Controversy is a last resort for the talentless.
When there's music in your soul, there's soul in your music.

If what you create seems to turn out much stranger than who you are as a person, it's probably because your heart is talking.
Like most arts, the link between the mind and the pen can chain you like an enslaved workaholic. Even on an intended vacation you suddenly have this killer urge to record whatever the vacation may teach.
Some people are ignorant of the world but educated in Scripture, and are therefore prone to missing the relevance of Scripture - these sometimes, later, amidst life's challenges and doubts, turn from the faith; other people are ignorant of Scripture ...
To be happy to be sad and sad to be happy is to sing an echo in that beautiful language called Sorrow.
You wander. You work nearly every job known to man, it seems, only to arrive at the wonderings of philosophy.
I appreciate a book intended to be judged by its cover. The insincere readers are often weeded out while the sincere readers remain curious.
The complete recipe for imagination is absolute boredom.
A number of our scientists boast intelligence but lack wisdom. I find those to be the predictable ones.
The hope is indeed that some will experience and believe: The purpose of a number of spiritual gurus is to demonstrate to God-fearing men faux spirituality.
