"The evidence of the gospel is not primarily in some document but in the lives of Christ's followers.  It is the modest persons who have heard Christ's call to involvement and who try, imaginatively, to respond, who constitute the proof that the gospel is true.  Since the proof is never completed, each person is important.  Each is important because each can add, by some unique and irrevocable act, to the cumulative evidence." ---Elton Trueblood in The Company of the Committed

"Countless Christians play around in the wading pool of spiritual experience, settling for a minimum relationship with Christ.  We need to dive into the deep end of the pool, explore the vast reservoir of His grace, and experience Christ to the maximum.  We can dabble in everything and leave a blur, or we can focus on God's priorities and make a difference." ---Doug Carter in Big Picture People

"I am a member of the Church of England: But I love good men of every Church.  My ground is the Bible.  Yea, I am a Bible-bigot.  I follow it in all things, both great and small." ---John Wesley, Monday, June 2, 1766
