"Someday you will read or hear that Billy Graham is dead. Don’t you believe a word of it. I shall be more alive than I am now. I will just have changed my address. I will have gone into the presence of God." Billy Graham

- My thoughts last night in a letter to our church family: mcleanbible.org/prayerforthepr…
- Could I ask you to pause for a moment, pray for J.D., and ask God to make a way for him to come into our family? Thanks. (4/4)
- We are not worried or panicked about elections, no matter how important they may seem. For that matter, we don't worry or panic about anything. Instead, we seek the kingdom of Jesus and his righteousness with true peace and total confidence in his supreme reign.
- Of this, be sure: No declaration by a government can change a definition from God. (Gen. 2:24) #marriage
- Add my name to the list of countless people whose lives have been shaped by the Influence of @RaviZacharias. He joins a great cloud of witnesses in Heaven who beckon us to proclaim the truth and grace of Christ with passion on earth. ow.ly/pIlo50zKVTM
- Met a Mexican pastor today who said, “God brought the nations to the doorstep of our church; and we decided to love them rather than ignore them.” His church turned their building into a shelter and is now planting churches among refugees in their community.
- I am grateful for and wholeheartedly affirm Christian zeal to care for children in the womb through the political process. Let’s match it with Christian zeal to care for women with unwanted pregnancies and to foster and/or adopt vulnerable children in our homes.
- 25 years ago, sat down with this girl at a Waffle House and we decided to officially date each other. By God's grace, 25 years later, we're still dating. Just not always at the Waffle House.
- 14 years ago today, I became a dad. Thank You, God, for adoption. Thank You, God, for my first son.
- About to go off the grid into the Amazon. Please pray for the spread of the gospel there among people & places where it hasn’t gone.
- In one orphanage we were in, a year ago 3-5 kids were dying every single week. By God's grace through partnership with the church, only one child has died there in the last 6 months. What happens when the church believes and obeys James 1:27?
- A reminder for adoptive and foster parents on particularly hard days: it’s worth it.
