Do not be afraid. Do not be satisfied with mediocrity. Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.

I plead with you--never, ever give up on hope, never doubt, never tire, and never become discouraged. Be not afraid.

Grace (the Gospel) is under attack today simply because it reveals the GOODNESS of God. Nothing reveals the GOODNESS of God more than grace.

All this will not be finished in the first one hundred days. Nor will it be finished in the first one thousand days . . .nor even perhaps in our lifetime on this planet. But let us begin.

Grace has a face. It is Jesus Christ.
