People are lonely. They want company and your book can provide them company and a little bit of hope. And there's nothing wrong with that.
Donald Miller
It confuses me that Christian living is not simpler. The gospel, the very good news, is simple.
Donald Miller
I think, in the grand epic, Jesus is the hero of our stories. And our stories, as they were, are subplots in a grand epic and our job is not to be the hero of any story. Our job is to be a saint in a story that he is telling.
Donald Miller
There are two types of men in this world--one is looking for a woman to make his life complete and the other is looking for a woman to join his complete life.
Donald Miller
I think the things we want most in life, the things we think will set us free, are not the thing we need.
Donald Miller
I think it's very hard for us, for Christians, to understand that it's okay to read a book, for instance, on how to manage your time. There's nothing wrong with that.
