More quotes by Tony Evans
As a believer and a child of the King, to consider casting a vote for someone or for something that would go against what God would vote for ought to be out of the question.
Tony Evans
The reason so many believers are struggling is that we have voted in the past asking God to bless our plans rather than casting our votes based on seeking His agenda. We want God to sign off on our decisions rather than us following His.

Churches are having a limited impact on society because they fail to understand that the goal of the church is not the church itself but the kingdom.
Tony Evans
As created beings, angels are not to be worshipped, glorified, or adored in and of themselves. The angels were created to worship, glorify, adore, and obey God.

Thanksgiving is not just a warm, cozy holiday. It's not merely a time of recreation and relaxation and watching football all day. As we give thanks, we need to put our mind, soul and spirit into our thanks and into our praise.

The real issue at hand is how God is going to respond to a culture when the majority of the people seek to veto Him.
Tony Evans
Scripture would not only solve the individual and family divisions, but it would also solve the ecclesiastical confusion.
Tony Evans
One day I was in an airport rushing to catch a plane. I was sweating and puffing when I looked to my right and saw a man walking half as fast as I was, but going faster. He was walking on a moving sidewalk. When we walk in the Spirit, eh comes underneath us and bears us along. We're still walking, but we walk dependent on him.

Brokenness is often the road to breakthrough. Be encouraged.
Tony Evans
I believe that feminists of the more aggressive persuasion are frustrated women unable to find the proper male leadership. If a woman were receiving the right kind of love and attention and leadership, she would not want to be liberated from that.
Tony Evans
As a result, socialism and communism, in particular, use government to suppress religion to such a degree as to leave the one true God out entirely.
Tony Evans
Many of us are being held hostage by bitterness because we are not willing to give to others what we have been given.
Tony Evans
If the Lord is your shepherd, He is sufficient for all your needs.

There is no area of life that does not have a biblical worldview attached to it.

Don't magnify your problems, magnify your God...he's got you covered.
