More quotes by Vance Havner
Adam tried to hide behind the trees in the garden. There is only one tree that can hide us from Him and that is the tree of the cross.
Vance Havner

Vance Havner
Salvation is a helmet, not a nightcap.

Vance Havner
When a man makes alliance with the Almighty, giants look like grasshoppers.
Vance Havner

Vance Havner
The same church members who yell like Comanche Indians at a ball game on Saturday sit like wooden Indians in church on Sunday.

If you would try out a preacher, send him to preach to farmers: if he cannot make the grade there, let him reconsider his call - or maybe he needs to be converted.
Vance Havner
God has a place and purpose for you, somewhere for you to be and something for you to do. You never will be happy elsewhere, nor can you please God anywhere but there.
Vance Havner
The only way to meet the modern demon-stration of the powers of darkness is by a demonstration of the power of God.
Vance Havner
The alternative to discipline is disaster
Vance Havner
We need to be preaching a dynamic Gospel and living firecracker lives.
