Warren Wiersbe (1929-2019)

From cowardice that shrinks from new truth, From the laziness that is content with half-truths, From the arrogance that thinks it knows all truth— O God of truth, deliver us! - Ancient Anonymous Prayer (Quoted often by Wiersbe)

Dan had a chance to speak about Wiersbe's new book, Becoming New, in a fun interview on @MyFaithRadio with @SusieLarson. She's an amazing host and such a great person! Catch the replay here: myfaithradio.com/programs/susie…

If life is to have meaning, and if God’s will is to be done, all of us have to accept who we are and what we are, give it back to God, and thank Him for the way He made us. What I am is God’s gift to me; what I do with it is my gift to Him. - From "Be Myself"

We older ministers have lived long enough to get a broader perspective: hard times aren’t as bad as they seem, and difficult people aren’t as bad as they seem, either. - From a January 1995 @CTmagazine article

“God doesn't bless us just to make us happy; He blesses us to make us a blessing.” ― Warren W. Wiersbe

God doesn’t bless us to make us happy… he blesses us to make us a blessing.

Reflecting today on Warren's long friendship with @MichaelCatt, who was called home to glory in 2023. Dan's conversation with him aired 11 months ago, and his wisdom is timeless. spotifyanchor-web.app.link/e/rkvgUhQWBGb

@WarrenWiersbe issued this warning 36 years ago. Tragically most evangelicals ignored it.

“There can be no conversion without conviction, and there can be no conviction apart from the Spirit of God using the Word of God and the witness of the child of God.” - Warren Wiersbe

When it seems as if God is far away, remind yourself that He is near. Nearness is not a matter of geography. God is everywhere. Nearness is likeness. The more we become like the Lord, the nearer He is to us.- Warren Wiersbe

@RutherfordMi76 Not sure if you’ve found one yet, but this is easy to read - Be Faithful Be Faithful (1 & 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon): It's Always Too Soon to Quit! (The BE Series Commentary) a.co/d/78UoAt9

Best Commentary or Books on Timothy, Specifically 2 Timothy that you would recommend?

“It is good to possess wealth if wealth does not possess you.” -Wiersbe The “Rich young man” in Matthew 19 clings so tightly to his wealth that he can’t see the gift of Jesus right in front of him. What am I holding onto so tightly that I am unable to see God's blessing?
