Love one another. We don't need more instructions; we need more examples.

We plant sod where God wants 2 plant seed. He's more interested in growing our character than having us look finished.

God made beauty so we'd know how He felt about us.

It's easy to confuse a lot of activity with a purposeful life. Do what lasts; let the rest fall away.

If you’re following God and haven’t lost much of what you’ve been holding on to - follow a little closer.

Grace means we don't need to airbrush our lives to make them look like they're working.

I know that sounds so circular, but for you, what you were made to do, is different than what I was made to do. But instead of spending all of our time having Bible studies about what we were made to do, go do stuff and you'll figure out what you were made to do, because you'll be great at some things and you'll be terrible at others.
Bob Goff -
Go be the next humblest version of yourself.

I think God’s hope and plan for us is pretty simple to figure out. For those who resonate with formulas, here it is: add your whole life, your loves, your passions, and your interests together with what God said He wants us to be about, and that’s your answer.

When you love people like Jesus, you get messy. But messy looks good on you!

That's all the information I need to know about the church, Jesus picked it. And so instead of me telling the church how she would really look better if she had this in her hair, or that over there, I think I'm just respecting the Groom's pick.
Bob Goff -
The shallow end of hope is usually the deep end of grace.
Bob Goff -
Stand up like a mountain; have faith like a rock; love like an avalanche.

I once heard somebody say that God had closed a door on an opportunity they had hoped for. But I've always wondered if when we want to do something that we know is right and good, God places that desire deep in our hearts because He wants it for us and it honors Him. Maybe there are times when we think a door has been closed and, instead of misinterpreting the circumstances, God wants us to kick it down. Or perhaps just sit outside of it long enough until somebody tells us we can come in.

What I've learned the more time I've spent following Jesus is that God delights in answering our impossible prayers.
Bob Goff -
People who want to manipulate you will fear your joy, because it's not easily controlled.
Bob Goff -
It will be more love, not more information, that will change our hearts.
Bob Goff -
God isn't afraid of our doubts; He's way more concerned when we fake it.
Bob Goff -
I'm all for getting together with men and women in small groups around Scripture and letting it just wash over us, but for me, I've been meeting with the same ten guys for like 15 years now, but we don't have a Bible study every Friday, we have a Bible doing.
Bob Goff -
We won't be distracted by comparison if we're captivated with purpose.

God often waits until we're out of ideas before He lets us know His plans. He competes for our hearts, not our attention.
Bob Goff -
When love is a theory, it's safe, it's free of risk. But love in the brain changes nothing.
Bob Goff -
If we only do what we're familiar with, we might miss what we've been made for.
Bob Goff -
We keep telling God our opinions; He keeps asking us about our hearts. We'll grow the most when we have the right conversations.
