Thank God (my wife) and I were both born poor so the concept of fidelity was allowed to take root in us.
The central theme of the book is that prayer is best understood as a long, sometimes perilous, epic journey that eventually leads to triumph.
Although unanswered prayer is indeed a theme of the book, it is not the heart of the book, for unanswered prayer describes a problem but offers no solutions.
It is not opinions that man needs: it is TRUTH. It is not theology; it is God. It is not religion: it is Christ. It is not literature and science; but the knowledge of the free love of God in the gift of His only-begotten Son.
TV commercials move me. They move me right off the sofa and into my library. Thank God books aren’t broken up by @McDonalds’ tasteless ads.
You can't rest on yesterday's growth. You must be dedicated to growing today... and every day.
Caring for the poor, resting on the Sabbath, showing hospitality and keeping the home—these are important things that can lead us to God, but God is not contained in them.
I believe God is managing affairs and that He doesn't need any advice from me. With God in charge, I believe everything will work out for the best in the end. So what is there to worry about.
The best moderators are the moderators who are essentially invisible. A moderator who is there to be seen and heard and to be talked about either, 'oh, God, what a great question,' or, 'oh, God, what a lousy question,' that to me is a failed moderato...
I do know this: God does answer your prayers, but it's not always in the way you expect. God knows what's best for us, though, so there's no need to worry when things don't go how we originally wanted them to go.

My best efforts were some modern things that looked like very lousy Matisses. Thank God I had the sense to realize they were lousy, and leave Paris.
Accept the universe As the gods gave it to you. If the gods wanted to give you something else They’d have done it. If there are other matters and other worlds There are.
Let us live not only to serve God ourselves; let us live to help our children and their children live for God.
God has been acting honorably throughout history regrading what He wants. We’re the ones at fault. God is good. And I still really, truly like Him
University departments wanted to hire sober, rational researchers and teachers. You were allowed revelatory, apocalyptic experiences only after you had tenure.
It’s never too early to begin pointing your little ones’ souls heavenward.
It is not objective proof of God's existence that we want but, whether we use religious language for it or not, the experience of God's presence.
Atheist’s denial of God’s existence needs just as much substantiation as does the theist’s claim; the atheist must give plausible reasons for rejecting God’s existence.
The fires of hell may be made of the very love of God, experienced as torture by those who hate him: the very light of God's truth, hated and fled from in vain by those who love darkness.
You claim to love God, and yet you disobey God This is a bizarre way of reasoning Surely, the lover, if his love is true, Is most obedient to the one he loves.
