SERVING GOD

It should all be for God's glory, not for ours. Whatever we do should be in service of God, humbly & lovingly so that He knows, even if no one else ever has even the slightest clue about it.

WHAT IS TRUTH

Truth is now simply a matter of etiquette: it has no authority, no sense of rightness, because it is no longer anchored in anything absolute. If it persuades, it does so only because our experience has given it its persuasive power, but tomorrow our experience might be different.

- David F Wells, commenting on postmodern thinking

DIGNITY OF HUMAN LIFE

"The dignity of human life is unbreakeably linked to the existence of the personal-infinite God. It is because there is a personal-infinite God who has made men and women in His own image that they have a unique dignity of life as human beings." ~Francis Schaeffer
