reflection of thoughts, not exact quotes, both are classic!

The enemy is the accuser of the brothers; the Spirit is the affirmer of the brothers.  The Spirit will always affirm God's love for you.  He is our comforter and counselor.

The Church is your privilege; it is your family; it is your community.  Too many pastors think their house is their refuge instead of Jesus being their refuge and their house being a place of ministry. This really only works where there is shared leadership so that there is space for the weight of ministry to be shared.
