I’d walk over my own grandmother to re-elect Richard Nixon Picture Quote #1

I can work for the Lord in or out of prison Picture Quote #1

Removing religious symbols from public places is not neutrality. On the contrary, it sends a highly negative message - that religion is something shameful, embarrassing, or at best strictly private Picture Quote #1

The true mark of a Christian leader is trying to build up other people. Raise up other leaders! Picture Quote #1

In our day, you can mock religion in public and even get funds for doing it. But you can’t show respect for religion in public - or you risk being hauled into court Picture Quote #1

Hostility to religion is having an effect. In 1963, the number of Americans who said that they believed the Bible is literally true was 65%. Today, the number has dropped to 32% Picture Quote #1

Many people are trying to remove religion from public life. Under the banner of pluralism, cultural and political leaders are seeking to push all talk about God out of the public arena Picture Quote #1

Some labeled Jerry Falwell an American version of the Ayatollah Khomeni. People for the American Way, a group organized to counter the Moral Majority, launched a slick media campaign attaching the Nazi slur to the religious right Picture Quote #1

That Solidarity was a religious movement no one, least of all the Soviets, can deny. In November 1981, Pravda denounced ‘religious fanaticism’ as a grave challenge to socialism; failure to contain it, Pravda said, was at the root of the problems in Poland Picture Quote #1

If the polls are right, our Judeo-Christian heritage is no longer the foundation of our values. We have become a post-Christian society Picture Quote #1

Seventy-six percent of the American people say we have a spiritual problem in our country. That’s great, because now they understand the root of the problem is not that we haven’t passed enough laws; rather, the root of the problem is in terms of our social value system Picture Quote #1

Repentance is replete with radical implications for a fundamental change of mind not only turns us from the sinful past, but also transforms our life plan, ethics, and actions as we begin to see the world through God’s eyes rather than ours. That kind of transformation requires the ultimate surrender of self Picture Quote #1

I do not believe one can experience conversion or the fullness of the Christian life apart from the church Picture Quote #1

Genuine Christianity is more than a relationship with Jesus, as expressed in personal piety, church attendance, Bible study, and works of charity. It is more than discipleship, more than believing a system of doctrines about God. Genuine Christianity is a way of seeing and comprehending all reality. It is a worldview Picture Quote #1

In college, [Christian students] are assaulted by secular relativism, and if we don’t prepare them, they will be like lambs led to slaughter Picture Quote #1

I was deepening my understanding of what we call the cultural commission, the command to take dominion and bring righteousness to our culture Picture Quote #1

When it comes to the culture, there’s no such thing as peaceful coexistence. If we’re not defending truth, fighting for Christian values in all of life, the truth will be sacrificed on the altar of mainstream secularism Picture Quote #1

Christians need to take the lead in educating people that children are gifts, as my autistic grandson most surely is. By going down the path we’re currently on, we might one day get rid of genetic diseases, but only at the cost of our own humanity Picture Quote #1

Great fiction can often present moral messages with greater power and clarity than instructional writing - since literature, after all, penetrates not just the intellect, but the imagination Picture Quote #1

God is truth and is to be worshiped, not because it’s convenient, makes us feel good, or is therapeutic Picture Quote #1

The gospel of Jesus Christ must be the bad news of the conviction of sin before it can be the Good News of redemption. The truth is revealed in God’s Holy Word; life can be lived only in absolute and disciplined submission to its authority Picture Quote #1

To turn away from the great questions and dilemmas of life is a tragedy, for the quest for meaning and truth makes life worth living Picture Quote #1

I meet millions who tell me that they feel demoralized by the decay around us. The hope that each of us has is not in who governs us, or what laws are passed... Our hope is in the power of God working in the hearts of people Picture Quote #1

One of the most wonderful things about being a Christian is that I don’t ever get up in the morning and wonder if what I do matters. I live every day to the fullest because I can live it through Christ and I know no matter what I do today, I’m going to do something to advance the Kingdom of God Picture Quote #1

Power is like saltwater; the more you drink, the thirstier you get Picture Quote #1

I do not believe one can experience conversion or the fullness of the Christian life apart from the church Picture Quote #1

The church’s job is to equip the saints for works of service in the world Picture Quote #1

God is truth and is to be worshiped, not because it’s convenient, makes us feel good, or is therapeutic Picture Quote #1
