Whether we write lyrics or craft legislation, sell homes or teach classes, design spaces or open franchises, prayer is a critical part of the creative process. Don’t just brainstorm praystorm.

More quotes by Mark Batterson
Sometimes God leads us to a place where we have nowhere to turn but to Him our only option is to trust Him.
Mark Batterson
Well-developed faith results in well-defined prayers, and well-defined prayers result in a well-lived life.
Mark Batterson
God is great not just because nothing is too big for Him. God is great because nothing is too small for Him, either.
Mark Batterson
If you've never had a God-sized dream that scared you half to death, then you haven't really come to life. If you've never been overwhelmed by the impossibility of your plans, then your God is too small. If your vision isn't perplexingly impossible, then you need to expand the radiuses of your prayer circles.
Mark Batterson
If you plant yourself in one place and let your roots grow deep, there is no limit to what God can do.
Mark Batterson
We’re too Christian to enjoy sin and too sinful to enjoy Christ. We’ve got just enough Jesus to be informed, but not enough to be transformed.
Mark Batterson
Prayer adds an element of surprise to your life that is more fun than a surprise party or surprise gift or surprise romance. In fact, prayer turns life into a party, into a gift, into a romance.
Mark Batterson
If you wait for perfect conditions to seize an opportunity, you'll be waiting till the day you die.

I just don't think pastors should turn their pulpits into public policy platforms. It cheapens the gospel. Our congregation doesn't need another political opinion. They need spiritual revelation. They don't need to think about politics on the weekend. They need to be reminded to seek first the kingdom of God.
Mark Batterson
Faith doesn't reduce uncertainty. Faith embraces uncertainty.
Mark Batterson
The outcome of your life will be determined by your outlook on life.
Mark Batterson
Quit living as if the purpose of life is to arrive safely at death.
Mark Batterson
In an urban environment, a church building is a thing of the past.
Mark Batterson
Your greatest regret at the end of your life will be the lions you didn't chase. You will look back longingly on risks not taken, opportunities not seized, and dreams not pursued. Stop running away from what scares you most and start chasing the God-ordained opportunities that cross your path.
Mark Batterson
Worship is forgetting about what's wrong with you and remembering what's right with God.
Mark Batterson
Vision beyond your resources? Don't let fear dictate your decisions. If your vision is God-given, it will most definitely be beyond your ability and beyond your resources. The God who gives the vision is the same God who makes provision.
Mark Batterson
Embrace relational uncertainty. It's called romance. Embrace spiritual uncertainty. It's called mystery. Embrace occupational uncertainty. It's called destiny. Embrace emotional uncertainty. It's called joy. Embrace intellectual uncertainty. It's called revelation.
Mark Batterson
If you aren't hungry for God, you are full of yourself.
Mark Batterson
One of our fundamental spiritual problems is this: we want God to do something new while we keep doing the same old thing.

To the infinite, all finites are equal.
