Words of Wisdom

Whether it be through books, TV shows, radio, music or conversations with another person whom we find interesting, we often come across sayings that challenge us in new ways. Some make us laugh. Some make us cry. Others get us thinking. Whatever the quote, we’ve all been challenged and moved in some way…

Here are a few of my favorite quotes:

Being relevant means someone else got there first. We need to stop being relevant and start leading the way. – Erwin McManus

A follower of Christ is a disciplined person. When you commit to Christianity you become like everyone else before you. You do what everyone else has done and still do. That’s why Jesus died. He died to clone us all. [Paraphrase] – Erwin McManus

I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ. - Mahatma Gandhi

Christians are hard to tolerate, I don't know how Jesus does it. – Bono

I still haven't found what I'm looking for. – Bono

Everyone ends up somewhere, but few people end up somewhere on purpose. - Craig Groeschel

If you don't give to God, you don't love God. Love gives. Don't say you do if you don't give to Him, because you don't. - Craig Groeschel

Where does it come from? This quest? This need to solve life’s mysteries when the simplest of questions can never be answered. Why are we here? What is the soul? Why do we dream? Perhaps we’d be better off not looking at all. Not delving, not yearning. But that’s not human nature, not the human heart and is not why we are here. Yet, still we struggle to make a difference to change the world, to dream of hope, never knowing for certain who we will meet along the way. Who among the world of strangers will hold our hand, touch our hearts and share the pain of trying. - Mohinder Suresh

The higher our view of the worth of human beings, the more we shall want to serve them. - John Stott

I’m talking to real people. – Brandon Donaldson

OH MY GREATNESS!!! - Darren Simpson

BLASTING THROUGH THE ‘POD’SPHERE…FROM SOUTH AFRICA TO THE WORLD! – Derek the Bandit
