“What are you doing personally to make your church family more warm and loving? There are many people in your community who are looking for love and a place to belong.

“Pain is the fuel of passion — it energizes us with an intensity to change that we don’t normally possess. C. S.

God is not mad at you; he’s mad about you, and he will do whatever it takes to bring you back into fellowship with him.”
