"Everybody wants a miracle, we just don't want to be in a situation where we need one. You can't have one without the other. Sometimes what we perceive as our problem is really God setting us up to do something miraculous in our lives.

"My help-it's not a light switch you can turn on and off. My help starts right now, and after this point you don't get to tell me that you don't want it anymore. Understand? You had a chance to walk away, Alice, and you didn't take it. Now it's time to play the game."

"The only way to predict the future is to create it. You don't let it happen. You make it happen. How? Stop regretting the past and start learning from it.

But God wants to reconcile your past by redeeming it. God is in the recycling business, He makes recycled goods out of wasted lives."

His goodness and mercy will follow you all the days of your life. All you have to do is turn around. All you have to do is crash the party!"

Holiness, in its purest form, is irresistible. That's why sinners couldn't be kept away from Jesus. Hypocrisy has the opposite effect. It's as repulsive to the irreligious as the Pharisees' religiosity was to Jesus."
"If you aren't hungry for God, you are full of yourself. That's why God cannot fill you with His Spirit. But if you will empty yourself, if you will die to self, you'll be a different person by the time you reach the last page of this book."
