[Bob Goff @bobgoff]

Many of us have lost our way trying to help other people find theirs. Arguments don’t change people; authenticity does.
Live in Grace; Walk in Love

[Beth Moore @BethMooreLPM]

Fellow leaders, let’s quit assuming that the reason we feel lonely is because leadership is lonely. Bull. It’s usually because we put ourselves above the regular people who have real live relationships & ask about one another instead of listening to us just talk about ourselves.

[Beth Moore @BethMooreLPM]

Never underestimate the power of an apology. Few of us will want to pump our fists & cheer on our deathbeds, “Woohoo! I never did say I was sorry for that!” The proud are so lonely. They won’t admit it but they are. No one’s more alone than the one who views an apology as caving.

Who thinks Mr. Epstein’s money he left behind should go towards anti-sex trafficking non profits and homes for battered young women? 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️

[Paul David Tripp @PaulTripp]

If you perfectly obeyed every command for a thousand years, you'd be no more accepted with God than when you first believed.

[Timothy Keller (1950-2023) @timkellernyc]

The greatest nightmare of the approval addict is rejection; of the power addict, humiliation; of the comfort addict, suffering; and of the control addict, uncertainty.

[Elyse Fitzpatrick @ElyseFitz]

So was talking w a friend today who suggested that if we really want abortions to stop we should imprison every man who impregnates a woman who doesn’t want to be pregnant. Hmm. That might do it.

[Preston Perry @Preston_n_Perry]

God can, he does, and will continue to use counseling to help his children .

The Christian getting counseling hasn’t limited God. The one who believes God can’t use anything has.

[Bob Goff @bobgoff]

Don't let a little uncertainty talk you out of who you're becoming.

[Rebecca Wattier @BeckWattier]

Amen.

[Beth Moore @BethMooreLPM]

I want to ask a favor of you friends. Accept that I’ll always have haters. The best thing to do with most is to ignore them. Attention’s what they want. A brother said recently, You have 2 huge strikes against you, Beth. You are a strong female.
Accept the hate. Love the haters.

[Courtney Reissig @courtneyreissig]

Seems fitting that I read these two lines from Zach Eswine this morning.

“It is an act of faith and wisdom to be sad about sad things.”

“In this fallen world, sadness is an act of sanity, our tears the testimony of the sane.”

Come, Lord Jesus.

[Bob Goff @bobgoff]

Sometimes God’s quiet because He’s sad too.

[Bob Goff @bobgoff]

When God doesn't give us all of the answers we want, we get to decide whether just having Him is going to be enough for us.

[Timothy Keller (1950-2023) @timkellernyc]

Do you realize that it is only in the gospel of Jesus Christ that you get the verdict before the performance?

[Thabiti Anyabwile @ThabitiAnyabwil]

On Aug. 1, 1619, the first recorded shipment of Africans as slaves arrived in Jamestown, VA. Today marks the 400th anniversary of the beginning of the Transatlantic slave trade. Some 10-12 millions Africans were shipped in the trade before its abolition. https://t.co/TujzVKJZ4s

Fear and insecurity will always try to talk us into settling for lesser things.

Christians are people who know how to change their minds. They are humble enough to learn & safe enough to grow.

[hannah anderson @sometimesalight]

Of all the things I find disturbing about contemporary discourse, I worry most about professing Christians' inability to change their minds & admit mistakes.
