1 " When we lose our sense of wonder, what we really lose is our soul. Our lack of wonder is really a lack of love. "
― Mark Batterson , Primal: A Quest for the Lost Soul of Christianity
2 " In essential things, unity. In nonessential things, freedom. In all things, love. "
3 " Until you hear the voice of God, you won’t be able to sing His song. Why? Because you’re out of tune. "
4 " Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him.4 "
5 " In my experience, it’s much easier to act like a Christian than it is to react like one. Anyone can put on an act. But your reactions reveal what is really in your heart. And if you love God with all your heart, you won’t just act like it. You’ll react like it. "
6 " The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existence. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity.6 "
7 " The Bible isn’t meant to be read reactively. It is meant to be prayed proactively. "
8 " I love the way Dorothy Sayers described the wild side of His personality. To do them justice, the people who crucified Jesus did not do so because he was a bore. Quite the contrary; he was too dynamic to be safe. It has been left for later generations to muffle up that shattering personality and surround Him with an atmosphere of tedium. We have declawed the lion of Judah and made Him a housecat for pale priests and pious old ladies.9 "
