Jerry Bridges Quotes
Our first problem is that our attitude towards sin is more self-centred than God-centred.

We cannot tolerate failure in our struggle with sin chiefly because we are success oriented, not because we know it is offensive to God.

The creative act always requires a stepping back. It's called the incubation period.
