“Some folks come to church once a quarter and leave a quarter.” -- Herman Johnson

“There is no neutrality in Christianity. May we never stop being the antithesis to the thinking of the world both in speech and in deed.” -- Ron Braswell
“When faith seeks understanding—when belief is grounded in revelation and open to the light of reason—truth can travel. ... Christianity does not fear inquiry because the God who calls us to faith is the same God who made our minds.” -- Adam Francisco

“Multitudes of ‘Christians’ think that God might be a half inch bigger than them.” -- Richard Owen Roberts
“Do you think about God the way God thinks about himself? Do you know the God who reveals himself in holy scripture or do you only know the God that your church has imagined him to be?

“Nobody wants to go to Hell – but they want to be saved on their own terms.” -- S. M. Lockridge
“The robe of righteousness is not altered to fit the man; the man is altered to fit the robe.” -- S. M. Lockridge
“If your clothing is a frame for your face, from which the glory of God is to shine, it is proper. … If your clothing draws attention to your body, to outline it, to make it noticed, it is sensual.” -- Rosario ‘Charo’ Washer
“It is good to feel left out, if you are left out because you came out and separated yourself.” -- Unknown
