We get a lot of unsolicited manuscripts here. Im not even a publisher, but we get several a week. I dont read them, but I do glance through some of them, and some people dont need to be writing, they have something else.

Fredrick Buechner kind of loosened up my clerical collar, you might say.
Max Lucado
There's a great place for good Christian children's books. After the upcoming projects I'm working on, I'd like to turn my attention back to children's books. Maybe with a granddaughter I'll have more inspiration and new ideas.
Max Lucado
What Christ does in us and through us will always be 'exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think.'
Max Lucado
There is a rawness and a wonder to life. Pursue it. Hunt for it. Sell out to get it. Don't listen to the whines of those who have settled for a second-rate life and want you to do the same so they won't feel guilty. Your goal is not to live long it's to live.
Max Lucado
You come before the judgment seat of God full of rebellion and mistakes. Because of his justice he cannot dismiss your sin, but because of his love he cannot dismiss you. So, in an act which stunned the heavens, he punished himself on the cross for your sins. God’s justice and love are equally honored. And you, God’s creation, are forgiven.
Max Lucado
We are such a sound-bite culture people are so accustomed to flipping through their television so quickly that we only have just a few seconds to grab someone's attention.
Max Lucado
God does not exist to make a big deal out of us. We exist to make a big deal out of him. It's not about you. It's not about me. It's all about him.
Max Lucado
The next time you're disappointed, don't panic. Don't give up. Just be patient and let God remind you He's still in control.
Max Lucado
It's important to preach like there's a broken heart on every pew. That's always been a phrase that stuck with me. Not everybody is having a tough time, but you can bet your buck that there's a good tenth of your church that's going through a hard season. There really is a broken heart on every pew.
Max Lucado
Michael Jordan once said that the most peaceful moments of his life were on a basketball court, because that's the only place he knew exactly what to do. And to me the most peaceful moments in my ministry are in the pulpit because that's when I really know what I'm going to do.
Max Lucado
What causes us to think of prayer as the last option rather than the first? I can think of two reasons: feelings of independence and feelings of insignificance.
Max Lucado
It's up to me to promote my faith and somebody else to promote theirs. Let the government just protect our right to do so.
Max Lucado
No person is too hardened.
Max Lucado
Our God is abundant in love and steadfast in mercy. He saves us, not because we trust in a symbol, but because we trust in a Savior.
Max Lucado
It works well for me to go ahead and prepare the sermon with a chapter in mind. What that does is to force me to be very thrifty in my language, tighten up my words and not ramble so much. It puts some fiber in the sermon.
Max Lucado
When we see death, we see disaster. When Jesus sees death, he sees deliverance!
Max Lucado
Remember, you are special because I made you. And I don't make mistakes.

The book, Max on Life, is really kind of a second chance to answer these questions.
Max Lucado
There are some facts that will never change. One fact is that you are forgiven. If you are in Christ, when he sees you, your sins are covered-he doesn't see them. He sees you better than you see yourself.
Max Lucado
The life of Jesus Christ is a message of hope, a message of mercy, a message of life in a dark world.
