Charles R. Swindoll
That's what this thing called Christian life is all about, isn't it. Going . . . yet not knowing. As followers of our Lord we believe He leads us in a certain direction . . . or in pursuit of a precise goal.
Charles R. Swindoll
It has come to the time where the most dangerous place to be in America is not the inner city, where gangs threaten innocent lives, or in angry prisons, where only the fit survive, but in the womb of a mother who is being told that if she doesn't really want the baby, an abortion is the solution.
Charles R. Swindoll
Walk by faith! Stop the plague of worry. Relax! Learn to say, Lord, this is Your battle.
