PTP Quotables – 2

Facebooktwitterredditpinterestlinkedintumblrmail
Last Tuesday instead of our normal bi-weekly article I took the opportunity to share several thoughts that were presented and archived on Twitter from Polishing the Pulpit (if you don’t know what that is read this).  However, because of space and internet issues I was only able to post some material that had been presented Friday-Monday.  Today I want to follow up on my promise and share some material that was presented the remainder of the week.

I hope these offer encouragement to you and maybe even a little enticement to make plans next year to be there yourself!

  • “There is no place in the kingdom of my Lord to accept a mediocre approach” – Tom Holland.
  • “Our life activity has to reflect the importance of our life mission” – David Shannon.

  • “God has no grandchildren.  Your children must have their own faith” – David Shannon.

  • “Young or old, we need to realize the fact that there are those working 24 hours a day to win our souls to hell!” – Eric Owens.
  • “I’d rather be the soldier who speared the side of my Lord on the cross than one today who divides and harms His body, the church” – Tom Holland.
  • “You being a preacher is not what your child needs, he/she needs a daddy who loves Jesus” – Glenn Colley.
  • “Faith is not the name of what pulls my family apart, it is the name of what pulls us together” – Glenn Colley.
  • “If I converted the whole world but lost my family I would consider myself a miserable failure” – Rod Rutherford.
  • “I’m determined not to let what others say and think of me to determine what I say and think” – James Meadows.
  • “Don’t get upset when others criticize you, after all they may be using the only talent they have” – Robert R. Taylor, Jr.
I hope these brief statements offer as much encouragement to you as they have to me.  May God bless us all as we seek to work for Him!
