Faith is not belief without proof, but trust without reservation.

The spoken word is never really effective unless it is backed up by a life, but it is also true that the living deed is never adequate without the support the spoken word can provide.

Thoughtful people are concerned with the future because that is the only area of experience about which anything can be done. We cannot change the past, and the present is gone as soon as it is reported, but the future is that in which we can make a difference.

Faith is not belief without proof but trust without reservation.

The world is equally shocked at hearing Christianity criticized and seeing it practiced.

A man has made at least a start on discovering the meaning of human life when he plants shade trees under which he knows full well he will never sit.

We need to be agnostics first and then there is some chance at arriving at a sensible system of belief.

It takes a noble man to plant a seed for a tree that will some day give shade to people he may never meet.

Evangelism is not a professional job for a few trained men but is instead the unrelenting responsibility of every person who belongs to the company of Jesus.
