We are not always great at talking to God, at least I’m not, but I think we are even worse at listening to God. Of course, if we think we can’t hear God’s voice, at least in the figurative sense, why would we listen?

In this clip, Randy Alcorn shares about his book Money, Possessions and Eternity. 

The safest road to hell is the gradual one—the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts. — C. S. Lewis

So, I shouldn’t be bragging about my Bible study or prayer or evangelism or parenting or giving, but I shouldn’t be covering it up either.

So we will not be complete, fully perfected human beings until our sinless spirit is joined to a body no longer under the curse in the resurrection.

Eventually all believers will have resurrection bodies (Job 19:25-27; Is. 26:19; Dan. 12:2-3; 1 Cor. 15:12-58; Phil. 3:21; 1 Thess. 4:16-17; Rev. 20:4-6).

I spent a lot of time with black men and women in the background research for Dominion, relying heavily on their personal accounts and paying particular attention to the recurring stories.

Regardless of whether we are rewarded in the same way we would have been if we'd trusted God to give it away while we were still alive, it is obviously still wise, and in that sense perhaps rewardable, to leave behind money to God’s kingdom.

This heaven-focused book provided me more earthly applications than I could handle-from what to teach my children and how to spend my money, to what to dream about as I lay my head down at night. 

Deep is the dwelling place of God. Deep is the character of the ocean. Hold the metaphor for a moment and savor its lesson ahead of time.
