“I have two things in common with every person. The first thing is, every person I encounter, God created them… The second thing I remind my heart about, is that Jesus died to redeem them.”

“Your compassion is what empowers you to walk across the street. It’s not obligation, it’s compassion.”

“I think on a practical level, getting to know people by name is important.”

“I’ve been praying that God would protect you and your family, that He would provide for you,… and I’ve been praying that you would personally come to know Jesus better.”

“…but you cannot be intentional about something you are not aware of. So, awareness by nature, trumps intentionality.”

“So, if you approach the conversation with positive intent about ‘I want to add something of value to this person’s life today,’ that’s going to create the opportunity for multiple conversations and influence to be shared after that.”
