“I don’t believe that young people today can live clean, pure lives without the help of God. The peer pressure is too great and the temptations they see in the movies and on television, and what they hear in their music is too much. Only Christ can give them the power to say no.”

“Much of the world believes little or nothing. People are broad but shallow. Agnosticism, anxiety, emptiness, and meaninglessness have gripped much of the world—and even the church . . .

and passionately dedicated to the God they trusted, and for whom they would willingly have died.”

“We can trust the Bible because it points us to the most important events in human history: the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.”
