What people pray for will tell you more than anything else whether they are locked into the vision and priorities of the church.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
As a pastor, I've spent 30 years talking to people and heard every kind of story imaginable.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
When a plan or strategy fails, people are tempted to assume it was the wrong vision. Plans and strategies can always be changed and improved. But vision doesn't change. Visions are simply refined with time.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
People pray in one direction but they walk in a different direction, and direction always determines where we end up.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Guys that preach verse-by-verse through books of the Bible - that is just cheating. It's cheating because that would be easy, first of all. That isn't how you grow people. No one in the Scripture modeled that.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
People are not on a truth quest; they are on a happiness quest. They will continue to attend your church - even if they don't share your beliefs - as long as they find the content engaging and helpful.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Communicators need to figure out how well do they engage people, and they should not talk one word longer than people are engaged.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
You cannot communicate complicated information to large groups of people. As you increase the number of people, you have to decrease the complexity of the information.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
There are some rich people who, no matter how much God sends their way, never seem to put their hope in their riches.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Rich people have the potential to reach a point where they see money as the source of their safety and security.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
80% of your problems are not PEOPLE problems ... they are SYSTEM problems, because systems create the behaviors of people.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Success is an intoxicant, and intoxicated people seldom have a firm grasp on reality.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Leadership is not always about getting things done 'right.' Leadership is about getting things done through other people.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
The love of Christ comes from simple people who love simple people. Never be fooled by the spiritual leader who knows a lot but doesn't love a lot.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
People without clear vision are easily distracted, have a tendency to drift from one idea to another and often make foolish decisions that rob them of their dreams.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Greed is supported by an endless cast of what-ifs. Greedy people can never have enough to satisfy the need they feel in light of every conceivable eventuality.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
It's OK to offend people with the Gospel, but, good grief- let's don't offend them with something else.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
When people are convinced you want something FOR them rather than something FROM them, they are less likely to be offended when you challenge them.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
On day one, the Church wasn't for church people because there weren't any church people.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Many years from now, what would you like people to line up and thank you for?
Quote by -Andy Stanley
If we want to reach the people that no one else is reaching, we've got to do things that no one else is doing.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Nothing has stolen more dreams, dashed more hopes, broken up more families, and messed up more people psychologically than our propensity to disregard God's commands regarding sexual purity.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
I want people to help me reanchor the church to undeniable, mind-boggling, culture-shifting demonstration of compassion and generosity. Because, generosity was the hallmark of the early church.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
What percentage should you give? I tell people to start with 10 percent because the Bible writers have a lot to say about the tithe, which means, "tenth." For some people, that's extremely uncomfortable. But so is a colonoscopy, and those save countless lives.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Grace is not reserved for good people; grace underscores the goodness of God.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
The starting block for people who are going to stay in love is mutual submission.
Quote by -Andy Stanley
You have no idea the numbers of people that God may want to influence through you
Quote by -Andy Stanley
Leaders who refuse to listen, will eventually be surrounded by people who have nothing helpful to say
Quote by -Andy Stanley
It's hard to rest knowing that millions of people merely carry on religious traditions but don't actually reach God.
Quote by -Aiden Wilson Tozer
I wish that we might get back to worship again. Then when people come into the church they will instantly sense that they have come among holy people, God's people. They can testify, 'Of a truth God is in this place'
Quote by -Aiden Wilson Tozer
I fear that for the most part people are worshiping worship rather than worshiping God and communing with Him.
Quote by -Aiden Wilson Tozer
Dare to contend without being contentious. Preserve the truth without hurting people. Love and be charitable.
Quote by -Aiden Wilson Tozer
Religion today is not transforming people; rather it is being transformed by the people. It is not raising the moral level of society; it is descending to society's own level, and congratulating itself that it has scored a victory because society is smilingly accepting its surrender.
Quote by -Aiden Wilson Tozer
To be effective the preacher's message must be alive; it must alarm, arouse, challenge; it must be God's present voice to a particular people.
Quote by -Aiden Wilson Tozer
If the Lord's people were only half as eager to be filled with the Spirit as they are to prove that they cannot be filled, the church would be crowded out.
Quote by -Aiden Wilson Tozer
I find that when people haven't found God and do not know the new birth and the Spirit is not on them, yet they have the ancient impulse to worship something. If they're not educated they kill a chicken and put a funny thing on their head and dance around. If they are educated they write poetry.
Quote by -Aiden Wilson Tozer
A church can wither as surely under the ministry of soulless Bible exposition as it can where no Bible is given. To be effective the preacher's message must be alive; it must alarm, arouse, challenge; it must be God's present voice to a particular people. Then, and not till then, is it the prophetic word and the man himself a prophet.
Quote by -Aiden Wilson Tozer
God is more concerned with the state of people's hearts than He is with the state of their feelings.
Quote by -Aiden Wilson Tozer
The love of God is one of the great realities of the universe, a pillar upon which the hope of the world rests. But it is a personal, intimate thing too. God does not love populations, He loves people. He loves not masses, but men.
Quote by -Aiden Wilson Tozer
The Spirit-filled life is not a special, deluxe edition of Christianity. It is part and parcel of the total plan of God for His people.
Quote by -Aiden Wilson Tozer
God calls us to worship, but in many instances we are in entertainment, just running a poor second to the theaters. That is where we are, even in the evangelical churches, and I don't mind telling you that most of the people we say we are trying to reach will never come to a church to see a lot of amateur actors putting on a home-talent show.
