If you find something that gets hold of you in the Word, pass it on to somebody that very day.
E. Stanley Jones
The God I find in Christ is a God who overcomes evil with good, hate by love, and the world by a cross.

Faith is not merely you holding on to God- it is God holding on to you
E. Stanley Jones
The only thing you believe in is the thing you believe in enough to practice. Your creed is your deed.

The conscious mind determines the actions, the unconscious mind determines the reactions and the reactions are just as important as the actions.
E. Stanley Jones
Prayer is commitment. We don't merely co-operate with God with certain things held back within. We, the total person, co-operate. This means that co-operation equals committment.

Prayer is surrender--surr ender to the will of God and cooperation with that will. If I throw out a boathook from the boat and catch hold of the shore and pull, do I pull the shore to me, or do I pull myself to the shore? Prayer is not pulling God to my will, but the aligning of my will to the will of God.
E. Stanley Jones
Grace is free, but when once you take it, you are bound forever to the Giver and bound to catch the spirit of the Giver.
E. Stanley Jones
In the ordinary church, it is suppressed by respectability, by a desire to appear better than we really are.
E. Stanley Jones
To pass from estrangement from God to be a son of God is the basic fact of conversion. That altered relationship with God gives you an altered relationship with yourself, with your brother man, with nature, with the universe.
E. Stanley Jones
The BIBLE redirects my will, cleanses my emotions, enlightens my mind, and quickens my total being
E. Stanley Jones
There are two ways to be rich - one in the abundance of your possessions and the other in the fewness of your wants.
E. Stanley Jones
If you don't make up your mind, your unmade mind will unmake you.
E. Stanley Jones
Don't wait for some miracle to be performed on you from without, lifting you above your fears and doubts and self-centeredness. You help God from within by turning in outgoing love to others, and miraculously your fears and doubts and self-centeredness will vanish. The miracle starts within, not from without.
E. Stanley Jones
Surrender the thing you fear into the hands of God. Turn it right over to God and ask Him to solve it with you. Fear is keeping things in your own hands faith is turning them over into the hands of God.
