There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all.

Peter F. Drucker

I spent twenty years of my life trying to recruit people out of local churches and into missions’ structures so that they could be involved in fulfilling God's global mission. Now I have another idea. Let's take God's global mission and put it right in the middle of the local church!

George MileyMissionary with Operation Mobilization

At the moment I put the bread and wine into those dark hands, once stained with the blood of cannibalism, now stretched out to receive and partake the emblems and seals of the Redeemer's love, I had a foretaste of the joy of glory that well nigh broke my heart to pieces. I shall never taste a deeper bliss, till I gaze on the glorified face of Jesus himself.

People only see what they are prepared

to see.Ralph Waldo Emerson

The most pathetic person in the world is someone who has sight, but has no vision.

Helen Keller

If a commission by an earthly king is considered an honor, how can a commission by a Heavenly King be considered a sacrifice?

David Livingstone

The Church exists for nothing else but to draw men into Christ, to make them little “Christs.” If they are not doing that, all the cathedrals, clergy, missions, sermons, even the Bible itself, are simply a waste of time. God became Man for no other purpose.

C. S. LewisChristian theologian and apologist

Sympathy is no substitute for action.

David Livingstone

Hell begins on the day when God grants us a clear vision of all that we might have achieved, of all the gifts which we have wasted, of all that we might have done which we did not do.

Gian Carlo Menotti

It is the duty of every Christian to be Christ to his neighbor.

Martin LutherGerman monk, priest, professor, theologian, and church reformer.

If you're not sure where you're going, you'll probably end up somewhere else.

It is one of the ironies of the ministry that the very man who works in God’s name is often hardest put to find time for God. The parents of Jesus lost Him at church, and they were not the last ones to lose Him there.

Vance Havner20th Century preacher and revivalist

Vision without action is a dream. Action without vision is simply passing the time. Action with Vision is making a positive difference.
