Faith without works is like a song you can't sing. It's about as useless as a screen door on a submarine.

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.
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
Never forget what Jesus did for you. Never take lightly what it cost Him. And never assume that if it cost Him His very life, that it won't also cost you yours.
Rich Mullins
I grew up hearing everyone tell me 'God loves you'. I would say big deal, God loves everybody. That don't make me special! That just proves that God ain't got no taste. And, I don't think He does. Thank God! Because He takes the junk of our lives and makes the most beautiful art.
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
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
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
I would love to be a Franciscan brother. Im just not sure I have the courage to do it.
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 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
You are not alone in the world. You are part of an ensemble.
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.
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 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
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

We are not as strong as we think we are
Rich Mullins
Yes, it’s embarrassing to be born again, but imagine how embarrassing it must have been to be born the first time. At least this time you get to wear clothes!
Rich Mullins
Christianity is about learning to love like Jesus loved and Jesus loved the poor and Jesus loved the broken.
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
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.
