The primary focus of the Christian should be on behavior, not on doctrine. It is behavior that dictates the doctrine, not vice versa.


To understand something at a deep level requires more than mere
intellectual appreciation. It requires an emotional impact.


The problem is not to act; we all have the power to act, but to act
with integrity.


Our past experience determines our perception, and our perception determines meaning and behavior. But does it determine credibility?
In other words, is it the truth?


We generally do not see the world as it is, but as we are.


If we so habitually misperceive and therefore misbehave, wouldn’t it make sense to transfer our perceptions to one who perceives correctly? And if we follow him honestly we will eventually come to perceive, and therefore behave correctly, as he does. But, in order to accomplish this something is expected of us: We must be honest, not only with him, but with ourselves.


We must first follow in order to become, then lead. In other words, we must first follow before we can be a leader.


Most of the world’s problems is not a problem of fact, but a problem of perception.


The worst counsel you can give a person who is feeling negative is to think positively.


Our lack of spiritual progress is often not due to lack of effort, but lack of proper perception.


What we often think is thinking is just perception.
