Persistence. Perfection. Patience. Power. Prioritize your passion. It keeps you sane.

The skeptic says that the believer has lost his own mind under God. On the contrary, it is the people who follow God who are most like his children, who willingly and consciously walk in...

I find it a challenge to cooperate in a society where it’s considered moral to critique a résumé yet immoral to critique morality.

Even though artists of all kinds claim to put their hearts and souls into their works, it will only confuse you, for example, if you try to discern a painter by his paintings. His masterpiece...

God is our final say in who and what’s negative and who and what’s positive in our lives. It is best not to have this so over-simplified as the illusioned superstitionists have it; an infinite...

I am not here to merely argue about the perplexities regarding theism or philosophy, but to be a light to the world and to reach out to those who long to be a part of...

Everyone judges constantly: positively judging one person is the same as negatively judging everyone else; it is to say that that person is superior in some sense.

We often hear about stepping outside ourselves, but rarely about stepping outside our generation.

An insincere critic of a sincere person never wins.

At first, they’ll only dislike what you say, but the more correct you start sounding the more they’ll dislike you.

As followers of Christ, we are to be careful not to remain victims of the many cultural presuppositions of who he is, and what he teaches, insofar as taking for granted our own caricatures of...

If you use a philosophy education well, you can get your foot in the door of any industry you please. Industries are like the blossoms on a tree while philosophy is the trunk – it...

To be intuitive is to possess a godly characteristic, to be bad at second-guessing the good.

Christ delves far beyond the means of superficiality, not simply because of his immaculate love, but also because he considers the distinct cases of each individual rather than withholding a broadened perception by use of...

Hopefully, when your actions and deeds – and therefore other people – boast for you, you’re made tired of hearing it, too, from your own mouth because if not, all could lose sight of those...

The Christian does not avoid sin to achieve salvation, but rather salvation brings him to a desire not to sin. The closer that one’s spirit is synchronized with the holy knowledge of God, the more...

Your love is as stable as you are: It’s not about how good a person makes you feel, but rather what good you can do for them.

When there’s music in your soul, there’s soul in your music.

When everyone believes they are the life coaches, who are the players?

If truth is like the terrain, are we the generation who sees it as one who has worn shoes all his life or one who has never worn shoes? Yet still, even if the walk...

On the inside, the copycats of the ruffians are more delicate than the copycats of prudes.

Be willing to give, but only when you aren’t expecting anything in return.

When good people consider you the bad guy, you develop a heart to help the bad ones. You actually understand them.

I think that there are excellent and poor thinking habits just as there are healthy and unhealthy eating habits; and when a man really knows how to think, you cannot necessarily assert that he thinks...

A wise man’s goal shouldn’t be to say something profound, but to say something useful.

Some people’s theologies come across as blatantly wrong when weighed against what is revealed in Scripture. However God has mercy on those who may be wrong but genuinely seek understanding before seeking themselves.

Some virtues, when they become fashions, also become exaggerated. Just because nobody likes a judgmental attitude does not mean that there isn’t a sort of spoiled, self-righteous hypocrisy when one man obsessively commands other men...

God is not a God of confusion, although at times one’s judgment, for a period, may become clouded in the growth process. I stopped fooling myself into thinking that Christ is always for the cool...

To say that one waits a lifetime for his soulmate to come around is a paradox. People eventually get sick of waiting, take a chance on someone, and by the art of commitment become soulmates,...

You can’t let the truth bring out the worst and let it get the best of you.

As for those who spite you, and seemingly just because, it’s only evident that they’re learning from you. Maybe you taste bad – kind of like medicine, kind of like truth – and to them,...

The Bible does not say money is the root of all evil; it says the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. A poor man who, in his heart, worships the...

I am thankful when I am hungry because then I know that when I eat, the food will taste better. Life has taught me that my true contentment rests in hope, and the pleasure itself...

Religion, like science, is only noteworthy when it emphasizes a matter of what is true rather than whose belief is greater or lesser or which deity works for whom. Sincere religion and tested science are...

The logic behind patriotism is a mystery. At least a man who believes that his own family or clan is superior to all others is familiar with more than 0.000003% of the people involved.

Philosophy may serve as the bridge between theology and science. All atheism is a philosophy, but not all philosophy is atheism. Philosophy (‘love of wisdom’) is simply a tool depending on how one uses it,...

Whenever we want to combat our enemies, first and foremost we must start by understanding them rather than exaggerating their motives.

To ask, ‘How do you do it?’ is already starting off on the wrong foot. When reaching for the stars, there does not have to be a ‘how’ if there is a big enough ‘why’.

It is not so much freedom of speech but the right to truth that great men protect.

People, generally, are equally insecure. They just show it (or hide it) differently.

Ask anyone and they’ll most likely say their family is crazy, and if they don’t say their family is crazy, their friends are crazy. That’s because everyone is crazy after taking the mask off. People...

When you have wit of your own, it’s a pleasure to credit other people for theirs.

To believe in the truth of Christ is to be introduced to another form of hatred, and that is not sharing Him.

I like solitude. It is when you truly hear and speak your natural, unadulterated mind, and out comes your most stupid self as well as your most intelligent self. It is when you realize who...

God gives His deepest discernment and sharpest marksmanship to men who aim to expose His truth before an enemy’s lies.

The spirit of arrogance most definitely makes you shine. It paints a bright red target on your own forehead.

A man who goes into a restaurant and blatantly disrespects the servers shows a strong discontent with his own being. Deep down he knows that restaurant service is the closest thing he will ever experience...

There’s nothing more contagious than the laughter of young children; it doesn’t even have to matter what they’re laughing about.

A writer is one who communicates ideas and emotions people want to communicate but aren’t quite sure how, or even if, they should communicate them.

I cannot encourage any fabrication even for the sake of making people feel good. If I were to fabricate consciously and knowingly, I would not only be ordaining myself their enemy, but also ordaining myself...
