“Knowing what we believe and why we believe it is not an option for the Christian, because as believers, OUR BELIEFS ARE THE VERY HEART OF WHO WE ARE.”

“The secret to extraordinary faith is fully engaging our MINDS, as well as our hearts, because DYNAMIC FAITH REQUIRES A HEALTHY BALANCE OF BOTH.”

“There is nothing more powerful than gaining knowledge through our beliefs via personal experiences because when we turn belief into knowledge this way, we know what we know at the very core of our being, at a visceral level.”

“When we own our beliefs, we have clear boundaries. We know what we believe and we know what others believe. There is no confusion. Our identity is strong to us and everyone else.”

“The Bible is clear: Truth exists. It can be known. And when we ground our beliefs in it, we are rational.”

“There are two ways to learn life's lessons, the easy way and the hard way. I seem to prefer the hard way.”

“God gave us His Word so we could know truth. His truth. The whole truth. And nothing but the truth.”

“When we love God with our hearts in disproportion to our minds, our faith is out of kilter with the kind of faith God wants us to have.”

“Everything we say or don't say makes an imprint on our child's heart.”
