"We all understand the value of sacrifice, even if that only involves setting aside dessert so as to lose weight, or putting money in the bank so as to later buy a house. Progress or achievement in any arena requires choices that often oppose what one feels like doing.

"A big sacrifice is coming, and you won't have the courage to make it. That will cost you dearly. It will cost the world dearly."
"Sacrifice and "self both begin with the same letter, but the spelling is way different after that."
"Easter is the invulnerable tale of utter selflessness where at an inestimable cost God did for us what He did not need done for Himself. And that kind of 'doing' happens every day."
