More quotes by Erwin McManus
Courage frees us from the fears that would rob us of life itself.
Erwin McManus
We were created to be expressions of the goodness and wholeness of God.
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
Jesus did not have a value for prayer for prayer's sake. He had a value for the intimate communion between God and man.
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
You can plant a church and grow a church. That's not that hard to do, but it's harder to be a viable source of transformation in a city or your time or space.
Erwin McManus
To live outside of God's will puts us in danger to live in his will makes us dangerous.
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
Deeper than our instinct to live is our longing to be alive.
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
We need both to aspire and accomplish. Without a vision for your life, without a sense of purpose, you will begin to die a slow death.
Erwin McManus
When you're passionate about God, you can trust your passions.
Erwin McManus
So many of us have abdicated our passions for obligations, as if passion is a luxury for the young, and we must all grow up one day. We, even if reluctantly, fall into place to live a life of conformity that we describe as ‘maturity.’ We’ve made acting like an adult synonymous with living apathetic lives.
Erwin McManus
Love never comes without wounds faith never comes without failure.
Erwin McManus
God clarifies in the midst of obedience, not beforehand.
Erwin McManus
It is not balance you need but adaptability.
Erwin McManus
Humility is not about having a low self-image or poor self-esteem. Humility is about self-awareness.
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.
Erwin McManus
Behind real freedom, there lies discipline.
Erwin McManus
Faith is the determination to create with our lives what only our hearts can conceive.
