More quotes by 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.

Psycho-babble is that language spoken by sailors who have become so interested in navigating their way around their boat that they have forgotten to read the stars and sea. They may be able to get from the galley to the head but will be lost in their journey from point to port.
Rich Mullins
Look at us all - we are all of us lost and in all of our different ways of pretending, we all fool ourselves into the very same hell. Look at the cross - we are all of us loved and one God meets us all at the point of our common need and brings to all of us - all who will let Him - salvation.
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
I think, writing-wise, I am probably more of a quilter than a weaver because I just get a little scrap here and a little scrap there and sew them together.
Rich Mullins
If you can't be good, be loud.
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
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
Love is found in the things we've given up, more than in the things that we have kept.
Rich Mullins
We were given the Scriptures to humble us into realizing that God is right, and the rest of us are just guessing.
Rich Mullins
Let people see your struggles and don't ever fake 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
I dont know that the United States is Gods Country, but the church has been so strong here, and because of its influence, we hold life to be sacred and we believe that individuals have dignity. This is part of our legacy.
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
And I really suspect that of all the things we think we want to know, the only thing we really want to know is that we are loved. And if Jesus means anything, he means that you are loved. I hope you know that. And I hope you stop worrying about all the stuff you don't know, because I don't think it amounts to a hill of beans.
Rich Mullins
Theres a wideness in Gods mercy I cannot find in my own And He keeps His fire burning To melt this heart of stone Keeps me aching with a yearning Keeps me glad to have been caught In the reckless raging fury That they call the love of God
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
We just can't love without God. God wants for us want we want for ourselves. These basic things are not that hard to grasp. We just have to have faith, and faith is a gift. We just need to accept it.
Rich Mullins
Sometimes my life just don't make sense at all. The mountains looks so big and my faith just seems so small.
Rich Mullins
If you’re really looking for answers, look past me. But if you’re interested in how I got to where I am, I will be as honest as possible.
