Hidden Service

"Nothing disciplines the inordinate desires of the flesh like service, and nothing transforms the desires of the flesh like serving in hiddenness. The flesh whines against service but it screams against hidden service. It strains and pulls for honor and recognition."

- Richard Foster

Slow And Steady Progress

"We are a society of people looking for instant gratification, “quick fixes,” when things get tough. As our faith grows, we realize that seeking quick fixes is not the answer, only slow steady progress to receive God’s grace and love. Everyone can receive God’s grace, but a mature Christian realizes the extent of what that grace means."
