Petitions in Progress

Christian One-Liners

If the church wants a better pastor, it only needs to pray
for the one it has.

 

God Himself does not propose to judge a man until he is dead.  So why should you?

 

Some minds are like concrete, thoroughly mixed up and
permanently set.

 

Peace starts with a smile.

 

I don't know why some people change churches; what difference does it make which one you stay home from?

 

A lot of church members who are singing "Standing
on the Promises" are just sitting on the premises.
