John Crowder

“God wants a people addicted to His pleasure, a people who serve Him for no other reason than the delight they take in Him. This is the very heart of worship. It is not self-centred. It is putting God at the very centre of self so that self cannot possibly be satisfied without Him.”

“How can we lead the blind, if we are blind ourselves? His wine is coming to blur our vision, so that we can receive His vision.”

“Let your days become a fragrant song where heaven and earth continually collide”

“God made you for His pleasure. And He made you intrinsically needy and dependent on His unspeakable joy. If you are struggling with sin our addiction, don’t try to kill your appetite for pleasure. It is impossible. Just direct it to the source of all pleasure. You will be amazed to find that He has perfectly and supernaturally designed you to have all your deepest needs met in Him”

“Worship is basically adoration, and we adore only what delights us. There is no such thing as sad adoration or unhappy praise.”
