Now- HERE'S a Quote
The bluegrass jam camp I was at over the weekend was held at a Bible College/Conference Center. As I was walking down the hall I was brought up short by a quote on the wall. It was from a missionary by the name of C. T. Studd. Here's what Wholesome Words says:

C.T. Studd (1860-1931) was an English missionary who faithfully served His Saviour in China, India, and Africa. His motto was: "If Jesus Christ is God and died for me, then no sacrifice can be too great for me to make for Him."

I stood there and realized that this simple quote says it all in being a disciple. In one brief phrase it sums up the 2000 year old conflict between comfort and care, country club and evangelism, that the church has had to constantly fight. It would (and does) make quite a motto.

Some want to live
within the sound
of church or chapel bell;
I want to run
a rescue shop
within a yard of hell
