More quotes by Erwin McManus
We can’t change history, but we can create the future.
Erwin McManus
A world without God cannot wait for us to choose the safe path. If we wait for someone else to take the risk, we risk that no one will ever act and that nothing will ever be accomplished.
Erwin McManus
It is insanity to run from God and search for love.
Erwin McManus
It is not balance you need but adaptability.
Erwin McManus
All the evidence you need to prove God is waiting within you to be discovered.
Erwin McManus
Would you be willing to give your life to save the world if no one ever knew your name? If anonymity was the price you would have to pay for significance, would it be too great a price? To live a life of courage is not a guarantee of prestige or adulation. It only matters if you live and die fulfilling the mission you were born for.
Erwin McManus

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
It's not your freedom to choose that makes you free. It's what you choose in that freedom that makes you free.
Erwin McManus
People who are fully alive look out of their minds to those who simply exist.
Erwin McManus
Courage is not the absence of fear it is the absence of self.
Erwin McManus
Attitude is an accurate monitor of where we fall on the spectrum of pride and humility.
Erwin McManus
The most important moments rarely come at a convenient time
