"The Church cannot fulfill its sacred vocation unless it is a penetrating force, as salt is, and the penetration cannot even begin unless the fellowship which is the Church has something of the character of an explosion." ---Elton Trueblood
in The Incendiary Fellowship" . . . it is instructive to consider the gap between adults and children when it comes to learning and accomplishing new things. Adults analyze and think, contemplate and debate. Children just do. Adults allow experiences, life filters, fears—and, most important, Limiting Beliefs—to factor into what they do.

Later, the fear of failure prevents a person from stepping out on a limb and taking risks that could lead to extraordinary outcomes.” ---Bart Sayle and Surinder Kumar in Riding the Blue Train
"Partnership is not the crutch of the imperfect, but the secret of the successful." ---Marcus Buckingham
