“The very ones whose social pressure cause you to compromise will despise you for it. They probably respect your convictions,

May the Lord give you added courage to be a witness for Him,
even in a hard place.”

“If we would take the traits that characterized the Pilgrims and make them our own, we could regain hope. We could recover the spiritual and moral strength that we have lost. We could offer a thrilling challenge to our young people.”
