BEST QUOTES

“There is a sea of information that flows by us at rapid pace.”

“Men and methods come and go, but the mission stays the same.”

“I almost like finding problems, because it means you get better.”

“I think one mistake that leaders make is misplaced compassion.”

“The more experience I’ve gained, the less I’m worried about the fallout.”

“I try to be intentional about who should I be initiating time with.”

“I try to read or listen to audiobooks daily.”

“I did not cultivate emotional intimacy in the home.”

“If I could go back to my 20-year-old self would I say, “lower your expectations of others?” Because I’ve been disappointed at well-known leaders who pick and choose the parts of the Bible they want to talk about.”

“I spent two days alone with God, fasting and praying. I needed to know, “God, what do you want from me?”
