Quotemeal: Nov. 20th, 2007

Tuesday, November 20, 2007

"For the Christian, nothing less than the presence of the Spirit is enough to explain the marvelous changes worked in human lives. Call it grace; call it providence; call it the result of Bible study ... just so we understand that in and behind any or all the instruments is the presence and work of the Spirit who seeks and finds and transforms."
— Jim McGuiggan
