Hi Martin,
Thanks for adding all your recent posts! I especially like this one. I, too, am inspired by other’s thoughts and have a few quotes of my own that I will probably publish after annual conference.
My favorite quote of your list is the “unknown” author. In this age of church growth literature and lots of people trying to “sell” what they’ve done, to make a buck by people learning how to imitate them, I like those who emphasize, “Find out what God wants you to do, and do it!” (Sam Logan)
See you soon in Richmond!
Jeff
