Measure of Ministry

"You don't measure yourself by your success. You measure yourself by the unfinished task." 

— Missionary Leader Loren Triplett

Catch and Release

“It’s more important to catch souls than to build the size of your church. It’s about the catching, not the keeping. ‘Seek first the kingdom of God’ (Matthew 6:33) — not yours or your church’s.” “The Christian Angler’s Guide to Fishing,” Ken Horn, Pentecostal Evangel, August 12, 2012

Revival: What's at Stake

“Revivals begin with God's own people; the Holy Spirit touches their heart anew, and gives them new fervor and compassion, and zeal, new light and life, and when He has thus come to you, He next goes forth to the valley of dry bones.… Oh, what responsibility this lays on the Church of God! If you grieve Him away from yourselves, or hinder His visit, then the poor perishing world suffers sorely!”

Andrew A. Bonar

Sharing the Gospel

"Preaching the gospel is often seen as a microcosm of the Church at large. In fact, if we personally do not share the gospel with those in our lives, what is our purpose as Christians?"

Zollie L. Smith Jr.

What Do Your Neighbors Think?

"I remember one believer who planted a large sign in his front yard. It
read, 'Repent—or die in hell.' His motive was pure and his message
scriptural, but his method needed refinement. His neighbors felt his
condemnation but didn't sense his love."

Hal Donaldson
