More quotes by Vance Havner
No life is great that does not point to Christ.
Vance Havner
To the average professed Christian today, living so far below normal, New Testament Christianity would be a shock.
Vance Havner
The detour is always rougher than the main road
Vance Havner
God isn't a talent scout looking for someone who is good enough or strong enough. He is looking for someone with a heart set on Him, and He will do the rest.
Vance Havner
We are not to be isolated but insulated, moving in the midst of evil but untouched by it.
Vance Havner
I'm tired of hearing sin called sickness and alcoholism a disease. It is the only disease I know of that we're spending hundreds of millions of dollars a year to spread.
Vance Havner

Vance Havner
If the church would only be the church- if Christians would only be Christians- nothing could halt our onward march.
Vance Havner
If you are a Christian, you are not a citizen of this world trying to get to heaven you are a citizen of heaven making your way through this world.
Vance Havner

Vance Havner
Humility is not thinking meanly of oneself, but rather it means not thinking of oneself at all.
Vance Havner

Vance Havner
One man with a genuine experience with God is worth more than a library full of arguments.
Vance Havner
Nobody in pulpit or pew needs a revival more than a bitter-spirited fundamentalist with his dispensations right and his disposition wrong.
Vance Havner
Abraham did not know where he was going immediately, but he knew where he was going ultimately. He did not know the Whither but he knew the Whom. He believed God, and, being sure of his destiny, he did not worry about his destination.
Vance Havner
Sin has gotten men into more trouble than science can get him out of.
Vance Havner
A soft and sheltered Christianity, afraid to be lean and lone, unwilling to face the storms and brave the heights, will end up fat and foul in the cages of conformity.
Vance Havner
When we sin, we are often upset, not because we have grieved the Spirit but because our pride has been injured.
Vance Havner
God's deepest secrets often miss the wise and prudent and are revealed unto babes. We say, Children, be like your parents. Jesus said, Parents, be like your children.
Vance Havner
Some missionaries bound for Africa were laughed at by the boat captain. 'You'll only die over there,' he said. But a missionary replied, 'Captain, we died before we started.'
