“From the pastor who has an affair with his secretary, to the jerk at the office who happens to be a deacon, to the overbearing boss who can’t miss his Monday night Bible study, Christians today cause more problems for the gospel than all the devil’s demons put together.”
― Wes Moore, Forcefully Advancing

“When our passion for the Great Commission, becomes our search for the Great Politician, we know we're lost.”
― Wes Moore

“Why would you accept the Jesus of the Bible, if you have rejected the Bible of Jesus?”

“Adrien Bach, main character from The Maker:

You know, when you’re a kid, you think you’re going to grow up to be something special, do something important. You’re not going to be a regular Joe like everybody else. But then you get out there and life starts to hit you. It hits you so many times, eventually you just can’t get up anymore. Or won’t.

And then you just don’t know. Those dreams seem to fade away, and suddenly you’re not sure who you are anymore.”
― Wes Moore, The Maker

“Sophie Bach from The Maker:

You’re a human being with a personality and a will, and you make choices and think and create. Is there no meaning to you, Adrien Bach?

― Wes Moore, The Maker

“What is missing in our time is not the willingness of God to
act in biblical ways, but the willingness of his people to believe
he is still the God of the Bible—and to act on that faith. To throw
away fear, to stride against common wisdom, to risk all that we
have and all that we are so we may follow only our simple belief
that the God of the Scriptures is still alive and that he will still
do what he says in his Word.”
