More quotes by Erwin McManus
Within a moment there is monumental potential. That is the mystery of a moment. It is small enough to ignore and big enough to change your life forever
Erwin McManus
Far too often, when we think we are frightened by mystery, the fact is that we are haunted by history.
Erwin McManus
When you live your life knowing the mission and calling and voice of God in your soul and you know where that compass is driving you forward, you will become a rare commodity in a world searching for direction.
Erwin McManus
When you begin to create the life of your dreams - or maybe better stated, when you begin to live the life that God dreams for you - you take responsibility to prepare for the future.
Erwin McManus
We have to ask ourselves, 'Am I really trying to discern God's will, or determine whether I want to do it?'
Erwin McManus
Your soul craves truth, beauty, wonder, love. Your soul craves to dream, to imagine, and even simply to understand. Your soul craves to connect, to commune, to create.
Erwin McManus

Erwin McManus

The Church is not segregated by region or cities. That's an antiquated view of the world. We are united with churches all over the world working toward common goals based on shared values. Mosaic is one of the most racially diverse churches on the planet. Our community and extended Church family is global and completely integrated.
Erwin McManus
The future belongs to those who have the courage to create it. We need a new humanity. We need a new expression of community. We need the Church to bring the world together. This makes me excited.
Erwin McManus
When we lack integrity, we use power to control. When we lead with integrity, we use power to bless.
Erwin McManus
How is it, that for many of us, being a good Christian is nothing more than being a good person? The entire focus of our faith has been the elimination of sin, which is important but inadequate rather than the unleashing of a unique, original, extraordinary, wonderfully untamed, faith.
Erwin McManus
Courage is not the absence of fear it is the absence of self.
Erwin McManus
When you're passionate about God, you can trust your passions.
Erwin McManus
Great dreams require great courage.
Erwin McManus
The church does not exist for us. We are the church, and we exist for the world.
Erwin McManus
The future awaits those with the courage to create it.
Erwin McManus
Attitude is an accurate monitor of where we fall on the spectrum of pride and humility.
