More quotes by Bob Goff
I want to go barefoot because it’s holy ground I want to be running because time is short and none of us has as much runway as we think we do and I want it to be a fight because that’s where we can make a difference. That’s what love does.
Bob Goff
Start from scratch with Jesus every day and then be picky about what you add to your life.
Bob Goff
Something happens when you feel ownership. You no longer act like a spectator or consumer, because you're an owner. Faith is at its best when it's that way too. It's best lived when it's owned.
Bob Goff
Most of our decisions are driven by either love or fear. Figure out who's doing the talking, then decide what you'll do.
Bob Goff
I used to think that real love involved falling for someone but now I think it usually involves standing for someone.
Bob Goff
God doesn't break things so He can fix them He fixes broken things so He can use them.
Bob Goff
Love does whatever it takes to multiply itself and somehow along the way everyone becomes a part of it.

You can quit anything on a Thursday.
Bob Goff
God never said He'd eliminate all of the chaos from our lives He just said He'd bring meaning to it.
Bob Goff
We won't be like Jesus if it's more important to us to be like each other. God doesn't compare what he creates.
Bob Goff
But the kind of love that God created and demonstrated is a costly one because it involves sacrifice and presence. It's a love that operates more like a sign language than being spoken outright.
Bob Goff
Love God. Love people. And do stuff. That's my punch list everyday.
Bob Goff
God delights in answering our impossible prayers.
Bob Goff
When you identify with an organization and you want to do stuff [but] you get this inexplicable 'no' - a lot of people get off the end and think, Well, God must have said no to me. No! The organization just said no to you. Find what it is that you were made to do and get on it! Go do what you were made to do.
Bob Goff
Don't let not knowing how it'll end keep you from beginning. Uncertainty chases us out into the open where God is waiting.
Bob Goff
Do less of what you're terrible at and more of what you're good at. I don't know if that sounds too simple, but it's been working for me.
Bob Goff
You don't want to pick a fight with just the guy at the deli, [you want to] pick a fight somewhere in the world and just run towards it. Run because the fight is going to go on without you if you miss it.
Bob Goff
God makes confetti out of our titles and accomplishments to celebrate the poor and the humble.
Bob Goff
It has always seemed to me that broken things, just like broken people, get used more it's probably because God has more pieces to work with.
Bob Goff
Stop telling people how far they have left to go. Instead tell them how far they’ve come.
