Quote of the Week - Greenstead Evangelical Free Church

If you read history you will find that the Christians who did most for the present world were precisely those who thought most of the next.

I believe that one reason why the church of God at this present moment has so little influence over the world is because the world has so much influence over the church.

If you don't see the greatness of God then all the things that money can buy become very exciting. If you can't see the sun you will be impressed with a street light. If you've never felt thunder and lightning you'll be impressed with fireworks. And if you turn your back on the greatness and majesty of God you'll fall in love with a world of shadows and short-lived pleasures.
