Our Lord holds the keys to the doors of Christian service. You don't have to chase 'key men' around if you know the Keeper of the keys!
Vance Havner
We may never be martyrs but we can die to self, to sin, to the world, to our plans and ambitions. That is the significance of baptism we died with Christ and rose to new life.

A wife who is 85 percent faithful to her husband is not faithful at all. There is no such thing as part-time loyalty to Jesus Christ.
Vance Havner
More Bibles are bought and fewer read than any other book.
Vance Havner

Vance Havner
Every Christian is a priest, not offering a sacrifice for sins - since that has been done once and for all - but offering his person, praise and possessions.
Vance Havner
Salvation is a helmet, not a nightcap.
Vance Havner
We need men of the cross, with the message of the cross, bearing the marks of the cross.
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
If you stand on the Word, you do not stand with the world.
Vance Havner
Make Jesus Christ your theme! I have seen preachers espouse causes and champion movements, and when the cause died and the movement collapsed, the preacher vanished too. But the man who glories in Christ never grows stale.
Vance Havner
There never has been a culture since this world began in which a New Testament Christian could feel at home.
Vance Havner
If you see a Bible that is falling apart, it probably belongs to someone who isn't!
