That without dust the rainbow

"There is nothing like looking, if you want to find something..."
"I want to be useful or bring enjoyment to all people. And therefore I am so
grateful to God for giving me this gift of writing, of expressing all that is in

"A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a
lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word 'darkness' on the walls of

“Purity, I fear, has gotten mixed up in people’s minds with “Puritanism,” which, in the popular imagination, is a dour, brittle revolt against all the pleasures of the flesh. The concept of purity does not deny life. Rather, it refers back to the very Giver of Life Himself. Purity means freedom from contamination, from anything that would spoil the taste or the pleasure, reduce the power, or in any way adulterate what the thing was meant to be. It means cleanness, clearness - no additives, nothing artificial - in other words, “all natural,” in the sense in which the Original Designer designed it to be.”- Elisabeth Elliot.

There are times, sir, when men of good conscience cannot blindly follow orders.
We’re not saying that we are smarter. We know that you guys have got more degrees on your wall than a thermometer. We’re just saying that a guy got out of a grave! And no offense, when a guy gets out of the grave we feel like he gets to make the rules.
We know about Solomon - that he was the wisest man that ever lived. And, um, we also know that he had over 700 wives. Which also qualifies him as the dumbest man who ever lived.
