Presentation transcript:

“The deepest convictions of our hearts are formed by stories and reside there in the images and emotions of story. … The heart cannot live on facts and principles alone; it speaks the language of story and we must rehearse the truths of our faith in a way that captures the heart and not just the mind.” ~ John Eldredge

“Every man who knocks on the door of a brothel is looking for God.” ~ G. K. Chesterton

“If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world.” ~ C. S. Lewis
