"Royalty is my identity. Servanthood is my assignment. Intimacy with God is my life source."
"You cannot hold God hostage (to your questions). He doesn’t owe you an answer. If you want the peace that passes understanding, you’re going to have to give up your right to understanding. It’s called trust."

"Complaining proves nothing but that you can hear the voice of the Devil"
"Fear is a thief. It robbed Peter of a perfectly good walk on water, & kept the other eleven in the boat."
"A culture of honor is celebrating who a person is without stumbling over who they're not."
"Any revelation from God's Word that does not lead us to an encounter with God only serves to make us more religious. The Church cannot afford 'form without power,' for it creates Christians without purpose."
"God has called us into a place of tenderness, when nobody is looking, when there are no great decisions to make, when it’s just him and me in a hotel room, with no one to pray for, no one to preach to. When it is just two people in a room, that’s where you learn. That’s where you learn his heartbeat. That’s where you learn the presence. That’s where you learn the voice. It’s in the moments when nobody is watching, nobody is evaluating how good you’re doing. When it is just you and him."
