If thou wouldst find much favor and peace with God and man, be very low in thine own eyes; forgive thyself little, and others much.
Robert Leighton
Preach the word of God. Be prepared, whether the time is favorable or not. Patiently correct, rebuke, and encourage your people with good teaching.
2 Timothy 4:2

Little is much if God is in it.

One result of the unbelief of our day is the tragedy of trying to live a maximum life on a minimum faith.
Rufus Matthew Jones
The LORD preserves the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me.
Psalm 116:6
The New King James Version
The defects in a preacher are soon spied: let a preacher be endued with ten virtues, and but one fault, yet this one will eclipse and darken all his virtues and gifts, so evil is the world in these times. Dr. Justus Jonas has all the good virtues and qualities a man may have; yet merely because he hums and spits, the people cannot bear that good and honest man.
Martin Luther

The Christian faith engages the profoundest problems the human mind can entertain and solves them completely and simply by pointing to the Lamb of God.

Let your steadfast love comfort me according to your promise to your servant.
Psalm 119:76

Following Jesus starts with the house next door. A belief in longer tables, not higher fences.

When praying for healing, ask great things of God and expect great things from God. But let us seek for that healing that really matters, the healing of the heart, enabling us to trust God simply, face God honestly, and live triumphantly.
Arlo F. Newel
As in water face reflects face, So a man’s heart reveals the man.
Proverbs 27:19
The New King James Version
“I have heard many great orators,” said Louis XIV to Bishop Jean Baptiste Massillon, “and have been highly pleased with them; but whenever I hear you, I go away displeased with myself.” This is the highest encomium that could be bestowed on a preacher.

My grand point in preaching is to break the hard heart, and to heal the broken one.
John Newton
“For the pillars of the earth are the LORD’s, And He has set the world upon them.”

Though the Bible urges us on to perfection it gives no encouragement to suppose that perfection is achieved….A man who thinks he is righteous is not righteous…for the reason, primarily, that he is full of spiritual pride, the most deadly form that sin can take.
D. Elton Trueblood
A person’s wisdom yields patience; it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.
Proverbs 19:11
The New International Version
We will have eternity to celebrate the victories, but only a few hours before sunset to win them.

Blessed is the pilgrim, who in every place, and at all times of this his banishment in the body, calling upon the holy name of Jesus, calleth to mind his native heavenly land, where his blessed Master, the King of saints and angels, waiteth to receive him. Blessed is the pilgrim who seeketh not an abiding place unto himself in this world; but longeth to be dissolved, and be with Christ in heaven.
Thomas à Kempis
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control;
Galatians 5:22-23
The English Standard Version
Too many clergymen have become keepers of an aquarium instead of fishers of men—and often they are just swiping each other’s fish.

For the Christian, Jesus is the Way. All things are measured by his Way: by his healing grace, his call to forgiveness and purity of heart, nonviolence and a concern for justice; by his relinquishment of earthly power and dominance; affirmation of agape (friendship and self-giving Love) as a new basis for kinship, of change of heart as the requirement for righteousness, and of the transcendent power of suffering.
Madonna Kolbenschlag
The LORD is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth.
Psalm 145:18
The New King James Version
Sometime near a century ago the advice was given to young preachers: “When you go to the city to preach, take your best coat; when you go to the country, take your best sermon.”

He who has God has everything; he who has everything but God has nothing.
Augustine
How precious is thy steadfast love, O God! The children of men take refuge in the shadow of thy wings.
Psalm 36:7
The Revised Standard Version
A Scottish woman said to her minister, “I love to hear you preach. You get so many things out of your text that aren’t really there.”

Every Christian occupies some kind of pulpit and preaches some kind of sermon every day.
The Methodist Story
Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him. Do not add to His words, Lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar.
Proverbs 30:5-6
The New King James Version
Theological preaching is deservedly unpopular if all it does is settle a lot of problems people never heard of, and asks a lot of questions nobody ever asks.
