We are all hypocrites in transition. I am not who I want to be, but I am on the journey there, and thankfully I am not whom I used to be.
Erwin McManus

Courage frees us from the fears that would rob us of life itself.
Erwin McManus

When we stop believing the world can become a better place, when we stop caring about the lives and conditions of others, we lose a part of ourselves.

The church must acclimate to a changing world, or she will destine herself to irrelevance or even extinction. ...One of those dramatic changes in our environment is the shift from words to images. To do church in a way that is entirely text driven is the kiss of death.
Erwin McManus
Image
I think a lot of us are not on a path we're in a rut. We have confused comfort with peace, belief with faith, safety with wisdom, wealth with blessing, and existence with life.
Erwin McManus

The person who loves the process has a much greater chance of success than the person who loves the outcome.

God clarifies in the midst of obedience, not beforehand.
Erwin McManus
Image
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
Image
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
Image
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.

The most important moments rarely come at a convenient time

The fuel of ambition is not the problem it is the focus of ambition that frees or betrays us.
