More quotes by Rich Mullins
God is a wild man...should you encounter him...hang on for dear life-or let go for dear life is a better way to say it.
Rich Mullins
I take comfort in knowing that it was the shepherds to whom the angels appeared when they announced Christ's birth. Invariably throughout the course of history, God has appeared to people on the fringes. It's nice to find theological justification for your quirks.
Rich Mullins
If you can't be good, be loud.
Rich Mullins
It's not the job of government to help the poor. The church is the mechanism that God put on earth to help the poor.
Rich Mullins
Let people see your struggles and don't ever fake it.
Rich Mullins
You will never understand what you're doin'. But God does.

The biggest problem with life is that it's just daily.

I think that of all the diseases in the world, the disease that all humankind suffers from, the disease that is most devastating to us is not AIDS, it's not gluttony, it's not cancer, it's not any of those things. It is the disease that comes about because we live in ignorance of the wealth of love that God has for us.
Rich Mullins
I am a Christian, not because someone explained the nuts and bolts of Christianity, but because there were people willing to be nuts and bolts.
Rich Mullins
The longer I live, the more I have the feeling like God looks down, like when you've just bitten into a vanilla ice cream cone, you just get the feeling God's going, 'Yes! He enjoys it, and I made his taste buds and I made vanilla and he's putting it together and he's experiencing what I created him to experience.
Rich Mullins
Usually when we do something to corrupt our lives, it's usually something to fulfill an ache that we have.
Rich Mullins
The only man I envy is the man who has not yet been to Africa- for he has so much to look forward to.
Rich Mullins
I am tired again tonight - a good kind of tired. Some aches are well earned. I wish I could see the sky tonight
Rich Mullins
Having grown up Protestant, I was unfamiliar with St. Francis. Then I watched the movie Brother Sun, Sister Moon... I just became fascinated with the character of St. Francis. What I saw in that movie was a man who had fallen in love with God, someone for whom God was everything.
Rich Mullins
There's a difference, you know, between faith and playing make-believe. One will make you grow. The other one will make you sleep.
Rich Mullins
I would love to be a Franciscan brother. Im just not sure I have the courage to do it.
Rich Mullins
My salvation has very little to do with anything that I have done... Jesus will go to any lengths to draw us to himself.
Rich Mullins
After you're dead [...] it's not gonna matter if you have a few scars. It will matter if you didn't live.
Rich Mullins
We are not saved because we're good. We're good because we're saved.
Rich Mullins
So hold me Jesus, 'cause I'm shaking like a leaf. You have been King of my glory won't You be my Prince of Peace.
Rich Mullins
