Turn over the pages of history and read the damning record of the church's opposition to every advance in every field of science. . . .
Upton Sinclair

Once an old woman at my church said the secret is that God loves us exactly the way we are and that he loves us too much to let us stay like this, and I'm just trying to trust that.

The business of the church is to tell and embody a story

If one's careful study of the facts shows that the Catholic Church is correct about Jesus-his life, teachings, death, and Resurrection-then why not give the Church the benefit of the doubt and carefully study her reasons for rejecting contraception, homosexual acts, and women's ordination?

My mother was a not-too-devoted atheist. She went to Episcopal church on Christmas Eve every year, and that was mostly it.

I went to church with my grandparents sometimes and I loved it.

I feel incredibly successful. I make a living as a writer and am able to help support a big family, my church, my bleeding-heart causes.

I go to church every Sunday, which is like going to the gas station once a week and really, really filling up.

I don't go to church so much, but I do believe in God and I understand the consequences of faith.

I loved every second of Catholic church. I loved the sickly sweet rotting-pomegranate smells of the incense. I loved the overwrought altar, the birdbath of holy water, the votive candles I loved that there was a poor box, the stations of the cross rendered in stained glass on the windows.

One misconception is that if we follow God in the life of faith, and that means obedience - that we read His Word, we're obedient, we pray, we go to church, we do the right things - that somehow His blessing means we're going to be okay.

I saw also the relationship between the two popes I saw how baleful (evil harmful) would be the consequences of this false church. I saw it increase in size heretics of every kind came into the city (of Rome) Once more I saw the Church of Peter was undermined by a plan evolved by the secret sect (Masonry), while storms were damaging it.

I would sooner read five lines of the Bible than hear five masses in the Church.

One of the greatest errors in the church today is the artificial distinction we have created between accepting Christ as Savior and confessing Him as Lord. We have made two experiences of it, but the New Testament makes them one.

When I pastored a country church, a farmer didn't like the sermons I preached on hell. He said, Preach about the meek and lowly Jesus. I said, That's where I got my information about hell.

Another thing I liked about my Dad at church: he did his sleeping at home. He never used the church as an adult nursery.

A revival is the church falling in love with Jesus Christ all over again.

Plenty of church members are shaky about what they believe, while not many are shaken by what they believe.

You have not really learned a commandment until you have obeyed it. The Church suffers today from Christians who know volumes more than they practice.

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

The first step towards the evangelizing of the world is the christianizing of the church.

The last word of our Lord to the church was not the Great Commission. The last thing He said to the church was 'Repent.' He said that to five out of seven.
