Prayer is stressed over and over again in the New Testament as a vital pre-requisite for the release and experience of God’s power.” - Phillip Hughes

Don’t underestimate the power of an encouraging word. It can change the world.

Live with a deep expectation that the Holy Spirit will show up in unexpected ways. God loves to surprise His kids with good gifts!

Fear is faith placed in the wrong voice.

Fear is loud, but its threats are almost always empty. Basically, fear is a chihuahua.

@ToddKorpi Bamboo straws are the future — just like they do it at @BobaGuys

“Unless God has raised you up for this very thing, you will be worn out by the opposition of men and devils. But if God be for you, who can be against you? Are all of them together stronger than God? O be not weary of well doing!” - John Wesley

This is what our world looks like WITH the prayers of God’s people. Can you imagine the way it would look without them? This is not a time to shrink back, wondering “Do my prayers actually make a difference for our world?” Your prayers matter immensely. It’s time to lean in.

“lament is not simply the presentation of a list of complaints, nor merely the expression of sadness over difficult circumstances. Lament in the Bible is a liturgical response to the reality of suffering and engages God in the context of pain and trouble.” - @profrah

God loves to be with __________ (fill your name in the blank) (Jn. 17:24) If a person believes this truth, it will radically revolutionize their pursuit of God

St. Paul says, “take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” Why? Because it’s so easy to do the exact opposite: to allow our thoughts to take us captive. Yet, by the power of Jesus, it is possible to have victory over the mind.

“Be holy, because I am holy.” (1 Pet. 1:16) Holiness > Relevance Holiness > Influence Holiness > Talent Holiness > Giftedness Holiness > Popularity

“Being critical is not the same as being prophetic.” - @scotmcknight

Uncertainty is a permanent part of the leadership landscape. It never goes away.

The way Millennials and Gen Z’ers handle conflict: “Just unfollow them on Instagram.”

I want to clear something up so that there is absolutely no doubt. I’m a Board Certified OB/GYN who has delivered over 2,500 babies. There’s not a single fetal or maternal condition that requires third trimester abortion. Not one. Delivery, yes. Abortion, no.

@NijayKGupta Such a good point.

I just wrote a 2-pg section on joy in a Philippians commentary I am working on. I am shocked that there is so little scholarship on Paul's theology of joy; especially in a modern world of so much disappointment and hopelessness, the imprisoned apostle's words are powerful. #JOY

God is for you.
