More quotes by Peter Marshall
Let us not fool ourselves - without Christianity, without Christian education, without the principles of Christ inculcated into young life, we are simply rearing pagans.
Peter Marshall
Godly enthusiasm is not a fire of our own kindling...If a man, however, has caught fire, let me not quench the Spirit by dampening the ardor of his pure devotion. Enthusiasm is not contrary to reason it is reason - on fire.
Peter Marshall
Christianity is a power religion. Christ has the power to re-create men from the inside out, as every man who has ever met Him knows.
Peter Marshall
May we think of freedom, not as the right to do as we please, but as the opportunity to do what is right.
Peter Marshall
The choice before us is plain: Christ or chaos, conviction or compromise, discipline or disintegration.
Peter Marshall
In the name of Jesus Christ, who was never in a hurry, we pray, O God, that You will slow us down, for we know that we live too fast. With all of eternity before us, make us take time to live---time to get acquainted with You, time to enjoy Your blessings, and time to know each other.
Peter Marshall
Small deeds done are better than great deeds planned.
Peter Marshall
Most of us know perfectly well what we ought to do our trouble is that we do not want to do it.
Peter Marshall
Unless we stand for something, we shall fall for anything.
Peter Marshall
A different world cannot be built by indifferent people.
Peter Marshall
Get off, you look ugly (to a blood splattered player during a game)
Peter Marshall
The proof of how real Jesus knew hell to be is that He came to earth to save us from it.
Peter Marshall
It is better to fail in a cause that will ultimately succeed than to succeed in a cause that will ultimately fail.
Peter Marshall
