James 1:22-25 " 22But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. 24For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. 25But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing."

Quote - Athanasius

"The Bible is a book wholly inspired by God from beginning to end."  - Athanasius, 367 A.D.

"God's Open Call" - Ministry and Pastoral Calling

I love Kevin Smith's sermon on "God's Open Call" at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.  This is a tough, cutting, biblical explanation of a minister's call.  It is helpful for anyone in or considering entering into ministry.

Quote - Martin Luther

“You should not believe your conscience and your feelings more than the word which the Lord who receives sinners preaches to you.” - Martin Luther
