Donald Miller
By accepting God's love for us, we fall in love with Him, and only then do we have the fuel we need to obey.

When you fly across the country in an airplane the country seems vast but it isn't vast. It's all connected by roads one can ride a bike down. If you watch the news and there's a tragedy at a house in Kansas, that guy's driveway connects with yours, and you'd be surprised by how few roads it takes to get there.

My Sunday school teachers had turned Bible narrative into children's fables. They talked about Noah and the ark because the story had animals in it. They failed to mention that this was when God massacred all of humanity.
Donald Miller
The mountains themselves call us into greater stories.
Donald Miller
We shouldn’t be afraid to embrace whimsy, that nagging idea that life could be magical it could be special if we were only willing to take a few risks.
Donald Miller
God doesn't give us crying, pooping children because he wants to advance our careers.
Donald Miller
Suffering ceases to be suffering when you have a redemptive perspective.
Donald Miller
It occurs to me it is not so much the aim of the devil to lure me with evil as it is to preoccupy me with the meaningless.
Donald Miller
The most difficult lie I have ever contended with is this: life is a story about me.
Donald Miller
Being a Christian is more like falling in love than understanding a series of ideas.
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.
