If in preaching the gospel you substitute your knowledge of the way of salvation for confidence in the power of the gospel, you hinder people from getting to reality.

When a man is at his wits' end it is not a cowardly thing to pray, it is the only way he can get in touch with Reality.

Whenever a day comes when I can stand and preach God's Word without an agony of anxiety lest the people will not accept Christ; whenever a day comes when I can see men and women coming down the aisles without joy in my heart, I'll quit preaching.

The whole point of getting things done is knowing what to leave undone.

It is the unseen and the spiritual in people that determines the outward and the actual.

True power is enlightenment with a dose of harsh reality
