Brian Houston Quotes

Like Billy Graham said, "It is the Holy Spirit's job to convict, God's job to judgr, and my job to love." Our world is full of disagreement. But thank God that our loving acceptance of people doesn't have to be built on agreeing with them. Our loving acceptance of them is built on thr cross.
