Thoughts from Rogers Convention 2011

• Pride causes us to resist correction.
• There would be nothing powerful enough to make us clean if it wasn't for the blood of Jesus.
• In our search for wisdom, what we're searching for is Jesus.
• Repentance brings us back to what God intended for us in the first place.
• When we come to the end of life, the only thing that's going to matter is what God thinks of us.
• Greater joy comes from greater involvement.
• Inspiration soon fades if it's not turned into love.
• Professing isn't a religious experience, a ceremony or a habit.  It's giving ourselves to a new life within.
• There are things beyond our mind that are not beyond our faith.
• Love controlled Jesus whether He was alone or thronged by the multitudes.
• We don't have to be in an ideal situation to be fruitful or useful.
• Daniel didn't come out of the lion's den talking about his nerve-racking experience.  He came out talking about the power of God.
