There are lots of things we're able to do, but I'd like to land on the one thing I was MADE to do.

Failure is just part of the process, and it's not just okay; it's better than okay. God doesn't want failure to shut us down. God didn't make it a three-strikes-and-you're-out sort of thing. It's more about how God helps us dust ourselves off so we can swing for the fences again. And all of this without keeping a meticulous record of our screw-ups.

When love is a theory, it's safe, it's free of risk. But love in the brain changes nothing.
Bob Goff -
The thing I love about God is He intentionally guides people into failure.
Bob Goff -
Great love leaves little doubt.
Bob Goff -
Fear calls out our doubts; God calls out our names.
Bob Goff -
Selfless love is always costly; fear can't afford it, pride doesn't understand it and friends never forget it.
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.
Bob Goff
-
We'll never honor Christ if we forget how to honor each other.
Bob Goff -
Most of us have all the information we need. What we need is more passion.
Bob Goff -
If we pick recognition over influence we'll be known for all the wrong stuff.
Bob Goff -
People who take huge risks aren't afraid to fail. In fact, they love to fail. It's because failing means they found the edge.

Surround yourself with prompts that remind you who Jesus is.
Bob Goff -
Love God, love your neighbors, and do stuff!

You can quit anything on a Thursday.
Bob Goff -
Don't save up love like you're trying to retire on it; give it away like you're made of it.
Bob Goff -
We spend a lot of energy remembering failures God spent a lot of love saying we could forget.
Bob Goff -
I want to go barefoot because it’s holy ground; I want to be running because time is short and none of us has as much runway as we think we do; and I want it to be a fight because that’s where we can make a difference. That’s what love does.
Bob Goff -
Most of our decisions are driven by either love or fear. Figure out who's doing the talking, then decide what you'll do.
Bob Goff -
Day turned to night, His friends scattered and death thought it had won. But heaven just started counting to three.
Bob Goff
-
That's one of the things about love. It doesn't recognize boundaries and never obeys the rules we try to give it.
Bob Goff -
Live a life of conspicuous grace and courageous resolve.
Bob Goff -
We all want to have a place where we can dream and escape anything that wraps steel bands around our imagination and creativity.
Bob Goff -
The real game of Bigger and Better that Jesus is playing with us usually isn't about money or possessions or even our hopes. It's about our pride. He asks if we'll give up that thing we're so proud of, that thing we believe causes us to matter in the eyes of the world, and give it up to follow Him. He's asking us, 'Will you take what you think defines you, leave it behind, and let Me define who you are instead?'
