More quotes by Max Lucado
Who are they to give stars or dots? They're Wemmicks just like you. Eli to Punchinello (p. 25)
Max Lucado
The purpose of the Bible is simply to proclaim God's plan to save His children. It asserts that man is lost and needs to be saved. And it communicates the message that Jesus is the God in the flesh sent to save His children.
Max Lucado
If anybody understands God's order for his children, it's someone who has rescued an orphan from despair, for that is what God has done for us. God has adopted you. God sought you, found you, signed the papers and took you home.
Max Lucado
Stay strong! Your test will become your test-imony, your mess will become your mess-age.

I have some friends whose sermons are extremely practical - so practical that I can put them right to use. I'm trying to learn how to do that better but I don't think my approach or style really has changed in these 30 years. Whether that's good or bad I don't know, but I don't think it has.

God's mercies are new every morning. Receive them.

God has high plans for you and me.

It was a matter of going back through a lot of sermons and remembering the questions and conversations, where these ideas came from. So the book [Max on Life] is really kind of a second chance to answer these questions.
Max Lucado
Tragically, some people believe they are going to heaven when they die just because a few drops of water were sprinkled over their heads a few weeks after their birth. They have no personal faith, have never made a personal decision, and are banking on a hollow ceremony to save them. How absurd.
Max Lucado
Live in such a way that the world will be glad you did.

God wants no one to leave our presence empty handed.

The strength of a story is that it stays with people and it gives an opportunity for that story to connect with people where the Holy Spirit intends for it to do so.
Max Lucado
I don't have a lot of time in the sermon anyway. The sermon is only 25 minutes, which to me is frighteningly short. So I feel as if I need to get into that pretty quickly and make it as practical and accessible as possible.
Max Lucado
I simply think God is greater than our weakness. In fact, I think it is our weakness that reveals how great God is.
Max Lucado
God is recruiting for himself a people who will populate heaven.
Max Lucado
I never told anybody I wanted to write, I kind of fell into it backwards.
Max Lucado
You are who God says you are. Spiritually alive. Heavenly positioned. Connected to the Father. A billboard of mercy. An honored child.

If Jesus heals instantly, praise Him. If Jesus heals gradually, trust Him. When Jesus heals ultimately, you will understand.
