God only promises to bless the nation that recognizes His authority.

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.

Jesus didn't wait until we got better to die for us. He died when we were in our most unlovely state. The person who doesn't deserve love actually needs love more, not less. If you know someone unworthy of love, that's great! You now have a chance to emulate Christ, because the essence of His love is unconditional.

Don't wait until you are a big shot to do big shot things.

Trials are to see if you believe what you say you believe.
Tony Evans
Prayer is the means by which God has established for God's people to invite the spiritual into the physical, and the invisible realm into the visible realm.

The demise of our community and culture is the fault of sissified men who have been overly influenced by women.
Tony Evans
Revival is the return of God's manifest presence to His people for the purpose of them renewing their relationship with Him, with each other and for the good of the broader society. It is necessary because much of what God determines to do, or not do, in the world is determined by His relationship to His people.

The first thing you do is sit down with your wife and say something like this, Honey, I've made a terrible mistake. I've given you my role. I gave up leading this family. ... I'm not suggesting that you ask for your role back, I'm urging you to take it back ... Be sensitive. Listen. Treat the lady gently and lovingly. But lead!

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.

In fact, it is precisely because we have changed books that the chaos in our country has gotten worse than ever before.
