My high school science teacher once told me that much of Genesis is false. But since my high school teacher did not prove he was God by rising from the dead, I'm going to believe Jesus instead.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
I believe one of the best preparations for marriage is participating in a small group. If a person has learned to be intimate and honest with a few friends before they get married, they will have less reason to fear intimacy after they are married.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
We begin selling ourselves on what we want to do rather than what we ought to do. We listen to ourselves until we believe our own lies, and the we opt for happiness.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Jesus is the hope of the world and the local church is the vehicle of expressing that hope to the world.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
As a leader it is your job to protect the missional integrity of the Jesus gathering to which you have been called. It is your responsibility to see to it that the church under your care continues as a gathering of people in process; a place where the curious, the unconvinced, the skeptical, the used-to-believe and the broken, as well as the committed, informed and sold-out come together around Peter's declaration that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Jesus healed people one at a time because God cares about individual people.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Being a sinner does not disqualify you from following Jesus. It's a prerequisite.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Serving people we don't see eye to eye with is the essence of Christianity. Jesus died for a world with which he didn't see eye to eye. If a bakery doesn't want to sell its products to a gay couple, it's their business. Literally. But leave Jesus out of it.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Jesus raised the standard high so we would realize we couldn’t possibly do it without a savior.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Jesus did not come to strike a balance between grace and truth. He brought the full measure of both.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
If you want to know what Jesus meant by what Jesus said, pay attention to that Jesus did.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
If you're a Christian you can't have an "I'm better than" attitude toward anyone because everybody is somebody for whom Jesus died.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Not the one who knows the most, but the one who loves faithfully and consistently the most, is a true follower of Jesus.

Quote by -Andy Stanley
Just as Jesus predicted, what originates in the secret place won't always remain a secret. ... How do we guard -- or maybe it would be more appropriate to say, guard against -- our hearts? How do we monitor what's going on in that secret place that has the potential to go public at any moment?
Quote by -Andy Stanley
It takes a habit to break a habit. You can pray every day for a generous heart, but until you start acting in that direction, nothing's going to change.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Everything now will prepare you for the next step. Don't run from adversity; lean into it with all your heart and God will make you a leader worth following.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
If you capture someone's heart, you will eventually get his hands and feet as well.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Guilt rarely results in positive behavior. But gratitude? Great things flow from a heart of gratitude.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Every time I stand to communicate, I want to take one simple truth and lodge it in the heart of the listener. I want them to know that one thing and know what to do with it.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Every arena of life intersects with what's going on in our hearts. Everything passes through on its way to wherever it's going. Everything.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
For reasons known only to him, God has chosen to work through men and women who are willing to make sacrifices for the sake of the "thing" he has placed in their hearts to do. If God bas birthed a vision in you, it is only a matter of time until you will come upon the precipice of sacrifice.

Quote by -Andy Stanley
[God] wants you to go home, look at your bucket of seed, and determine in your heart how much you'd like to sow. He wants you to consider thoughtfully your current circumstances, your life, your potential, and your finances. He wants you to involve your family. He wants you to pray about it. And then He wants you to come up with a plan.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Somehow, what's in our hearts, good or bad is eventually translated into words and deeds.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
A leader is someone who has the courage to say publicly what everybody else is whispering privately. It is not his insight that sets the leader apart from the crowd. It is his courage to act and speak up when everyone else is silent....are those who would rather challenge what needs to change and pay the price than remain silent and die on the inside.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Next generation leaders are those who would rather challenge what needs to change and pay the price than remain silent and die on the inside
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Your response to opportunities, adversities and calling, determine the type of leader you become.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
The moment a leader steps away from his core competencies, his effectiveness as a leader diminishes.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
As leaders, we are never responsible for filling anyone else's cup. Our responsibility is to empty ours.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
A good coach always coaches to a leader's potential, not his current level of performance. A good leadership coach will see the potential in you and inspire you accordingly.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
The leader who refuses to move until the fear is gone will never move. Consequently, he will never lead.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Where there is no uncertainty, there is no longer the need for leadership. The greater the uncertainty, the greater the need for leadership. Your capacity as a leader will be determined by how well you learn to deal with uncertainty.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
The greatest thing you do as a leader may not be what you do as a leader but who watches you do what you do.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Leaders learn to leverage the problems that never go away in a way to create progress for the organization.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Try to do for the next generation of church leaders what the previous generation of church leaders has not done for you.
