God’s Call is Not for a Large Church – Jim Cymbala
God nowhere asks anyone to have a large church. He only calls us to do his work, proclaiming his Word to people he loves under anointing power of the Holy Spirit to produce results that only he can bring about.

Christians Nourish Each Other – John Bunyan
Christians are like the several flowers in a garden that have each of them the dew of heaven, which, being shaken with the wind, they let fall at each other’s roots, whereby they are jointly nourished, and become nourishers of each other.

At this grim hour, the world sleeps in the darkness — and the Church sleeps in the light.

Let us live the life of Christ in public. Let us take care that we exhibit our Master, and not ourselvesso that we can say, “It is no longer I that live, but Christ that lives in me.”

Don’t Neglect the Most Important Things – AW Tozer
The neglected heart will soon be a heart overrun with worldly thoughts; the neglected life will soon become a moral chaos; the church that is not jealously protected by mighty intercession and sacrificial labors will before long become the abode of every evil bird and the hiding place for unsuspected corruption.
