Karen Armstrong

Martin Scorsese

Hamza Yusuf
#63. The Christian that is bound by his own horizon, the church that lives simply for itself, is bound to die a spiritual death and sink into stagnancy and corruption. We never can thank God enough for giving us not only a whole Gospel to believe, but a whole world to give it to.
A.B. Simpson

Henry R. Van Til
#77. We try so hard to hold onto our stuff. We call it our treasure and expect to feel joy. But in God's economy if we want to gain, we must give up. For joy won't ever be found in collecting treasures. Joy radiates in our life only when we share our treasures.

#82. Travel challenges truths that we were raised thinking were self-evident and God-given. Leaving home, we learn other people find different truths to be self-evident. We realize that it just makes sense to give everyone a little wiggle room.
Rick Steves
#83. Everything starts from prayer. Without asking God for love, we cannot possess love and still less are we able to give it to others.

Mother Teresa

Gloria Furman
#86. We will find it increasingly difficult to believe that we've been set free from sin, from the law's power to condemn, and that God's smile is resting upon us if we continually give ourselves over to what we know we should avoid.

Elyse M. Fitzpatrick

E.L. Doctorow
#89. Let us thank God heartily as often as we pray that we have His Spirit in us to teach us to pray. Thanksgiving will draw our hearts out to God and keep us engaged with Him; it will take our attention from ourselves and give the Spirit room in our hearts.

John Steinbeck to Adlai Stevenson
John Steinbeck
#91. I'm not denying that depression can be spiritually induced. Guilt from having wronged and hurt others can bring it on. A sense of having failed to live out the will of God can give rise to depression. Certainly the fear of death and what might follow can sap the joy out of life.
Tony Campolo
#92. There's things that have no finish, Scully, no ending to speak of. There's no justice to it, but that's the God's truth. The only end some things have is the end you give em.

#95. The greatest honor God can do a soul is not give it much; but to ask much of it.
Therese Of Lisieux

Russell M. Nelson
#97. My secret is that I need God - that I am sick and can no longer make it alone. I need God to help me give, because I no longer seem to be capable of giving; to help me be kind, as I no longer seem capable of kindness; to help me love, as I seem beyond being able to love.
Douglas Coupland
#98. Marriage is the preserver of the human race. Without it, the purposes of God would be frustrated; virtue would be destroyed to give place to vice and corruption, and the earth would be void and empty.
