Quoting myself...

When you argue with a fool, you soon have two fools arguing.

There is a dark complacency in the Church today that is content to accept lifelessness and a lack of real spiritual power as the status quo.

Pastor’s who aren’t willing to do the physical things of the ministry, are not fit to do the spiritual things of the ministry.

The ministry is a foundry; you are either in the fire or on the anvil being shaped by the Master.

The word minister means “servant;” a fact which some in the ministry seem to have forgotten.

I like that one... I remember going to CC Costa Mesa and sometimes I would see Pastor Chuck out there picking up papers andthings in the parking lot.

One time the toliet got backup up and he rolled up his sleeve and went in a fixed it himself.
