Nothing in life is ritual.
William P. Young
Does that mean, asked Mack, that all roads will lead to you? Not at all, smiled Jesus...Most roads don't lead anywhere. What it does mean is that I will travel any road to find you.
William P. Young
Pain has a way of clipping our wings and keeping us from being able to fly... And if left unresolved you can almost forget that you were ever created to fly in the first place.
William P. Young
Mackenzie, you cannot produce trust, just as you cannot 'do' humility. It either is or is not. Trust is the fruit of a relationship in which you know you are loved. Because you do not know that I love you, you cannot trust me.
William P. Young
Disconnect your identity from what you produce, and that’s a hard thing for us because we think of our significance, worth and value based on what we do instead of who we are.
William P. Young
Through . . . lies you try to run your life and manipulate others. . . . Lies become an inhibitor in your relationship . . . .

Emotions are the colors of the soul.
William P. Young
Sin is its own punishment, devouring you from the inside.
William P. Young
Why do children love to hide and seek? Ask any person who has a passion to explore and discover and create. The choice to hide so many wonders from you is an act of love that is a gift inside the process of life.
William P. Young
Perhaps there is supranatural: reason beyond the normal definitions of fact or data-based logic something that only makes sense if you can see a bigger picture of reality. Maybe that is where faith fits in.
William P. Young
Look at us human beings: it's so much easier to be right than to love.
William P. Young
I am especially fond of you.
William P. Young
The God of Evangelical Christianity is a Monster.
William P. Young
Mack was getting frustrated. He spoke louder, 'But, don't I have a right to...' To complete a sentence without being interrupted? Not in reality. But as long as you think you do, you will surely get ticked off when someone cuts you off, even if it is God.
William P. Young
Living unloved is like clipping a bird's wings and removing its ability to fly.
William P. Young
The intricacy and the inherent beautiful fragility of the human soul is such that it is uniquely damaged and only God knows how to heal it, and it's going to take time.
William P. Young
I had a very angry father and was disconnected from my family.
William P. Young
I give you an ability to respond and your response is to be free to love and serve in every situation, and therefore each moment is different and unique and wonderful.
William P. Young
Paradigms power perceptions, perceptions power emotions.
