Josh McDowell
While the resurrection promises us a new and perfect life in the future, God loves us too much to leave us alone to contend with the pain, guilt and loneliness of our present life.
Josh McDowell
No matter how devastating our struggles, disappointments, and troubles are, they are only temporary.

Forgiveness is the oil of relationships.
Josh McDowell
When it comes to my salvation, all I need is Jesus after my salvation, everything is Jesus plus the church... When people preach that all you need is Jesus, they cut you and I off from one of the greatest sources of healing, which is the body of Christ. Dont go it alone - you wont make it.

Josh McDowell

Josh McDowell
For centuries many of the world's distinguished philosophers have assaulted Christianity as being irrational, superstitious and absurd.
Josh McDowell
Prayer is talking with God. God knows your heart and is not so concerned with your words as He is with the attitude of your heart.
Josh McDowell

Josh McDowell
Having convictions can be defined as being so thoroughly convinced that Christ and His Word are both objectively true and relationally meaningful that you act on your beliefs regardless of the consequences.
Josh McDowell
How do you spell love?... when you reach the point where the happiness, security and development of another person is as much of a driving force to you as your own happiness, security, and development, then you have a mature love. True love is spelled G-I-V-E. It is not based on what you can get, but rooted in what you can give to the other person.
Josh McDowell
Christ appeared alive on several occasions after the cataclysmic events of that first Easter.
Josh McDowell
We may very well wake up in the not-too-distant future in a culture that is not only unreceptive but openly hostile to the church and the gospel of Jesus Christ, a culture in which those who proclaim the gospel will be labeled as bigots and fanatics, a culture in which persecution of Christians will be not only allowed but applauded.
