Take it as a blessing, my friend, an inner calling that forces you to strive to unattainable heights.

Beverly Nichols


Marriage: a book of which the first chapter is written in poetry and the remaining chapters in prose.

Missions is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exists because worship doesn't. Worship is ultimate, not missions, because God is ultimate, not man. When this age is over, and the countless millions of the redeemed fall on their faces before the throne of God, missions will be no more. It is a temporary necessity. But worship abides forever.
