“Is the leadership of the worldwide church in the hands of men and women who know how to lead others one by one to Jesus Christ? We are so concerned with planning and administration that there is a danger lest we allow these things to serve as an excuse for not doing the one thing on which all else depends.” -Stephen C. Neill
“Our friends are the people whom we choose, usually friends are the same sort of people as ourselves. My neighbor is the man whom I do not choose; he is the man whom God gives me. He is the man who happens to live in the house next to mine; he is the man who happens to sit opposite to me on the train; he is the clerk who works at the desk next to mine. I have no right to say that he is no concern of mine, because, if I am a Christian, I know that he is the man whom God has given to me.” -Stephen C. Neill

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
Through many dangers, toils, and snares,
I have already come:
’Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
-John Newton: “Amazing Grace”

He made the first silver poplar tree,
And set it high upon a pale-gold hill
For all the new enchanted Earth to see.
