“As Sarah Obeyed” (1 Peter 3:6) “You’re always going to be different in this world if you’re going to heaven, that’s a fact. You are never going to be able to fit in with folks who are lost because you don’t think the same way they do, you don’t have the same standards, the same goals; get used to it. Be satisfied with that. The same is true about the church. The church is never going to fit in. We think we will just get in there and the world’s going to love us – it will NEVER love you… If you’re doing right and serving God. It put our Lord on a cross – it nailed Him to a piece of wood. Is it going to be your friend? Not if you’re Jesus’ friend.” - Wes Brown
