"The biggest problem with hell is not just the hypocrisy of the church, but the notion that God is both all glorious and yet an incredible failure at having won the world over. If the vast majority will die and go to hell, then does this not bring into question the foresight of God, the effectiveness of His effort to communicate redemptive love and the flawed design He used for human beings?  Adam in his falling was more powerful than Christ in His rising." 

~ Bob Greaves

         "Life isn't found in the destination you're headed to. It's found all around you in the journey you're on to get there. If you spend all your moments watching your feet, being careful not to step in the mud, not to trip over a root, not to stub your toe on a rock... if all you do is make sure you're walking right, then you are completely missing the scenery all around you that is called LIFE!
         "You can arrive at your destination filled with pride that you got there in pristine condition, or you can arrive a little muddy and bruised but filled with the life you experienced along the way!" 

~ Robert Cook

When all is said, and truly said, concerning the divisions of Christendom, there remains, by the grace of God, an enormous common ground.

~ C.S. Lewis

In America today, we worship our work, work at our play, and play at our worship.

~ Chuck Swindoll

In the beginning the church was a fellowship of men and women centering on the living Christ. Then the church moved to Greece where it became a philosophy. Then it moved to Rome where it became an institution. Next, it moved to Europe, where it became a culture. And, finally, it moved to America where it became an enterprise.

~ Richard Halverson, former chaplain of the United States Senate
