Rick Yancey
God doesn't call the equipped, son. God equips the called. And you have been called.
Rick Yancey

Rick Yancey

Rick Yancey
I brought Sammy inside and put him to bed. Said his prayer with him. “‘Now I lay me down to sleep…’” To me, just random noise. Gibberish. I wasn’t sure exactly what it was, but I felt that, when it came to God, there was a broken promise in there somewhere.
Rick Yancey
