Benjamin L. Corey Quotes

If we want to rediscover the radical message of Jesus, we must stop diluting it by focusing on power, peace of mind, and prosperity. Instead, we must embrace the truly radical message that invites us to find life through laying it down. Ironically—if we do this—we’ll actually find the life we’re looking for, unfamiliar as it may be.
