Quotes to Consider 07.28.10
The attendance of Sunday morning registers the popularity of the church.  The size of the Sunday night congregation measures the popularity of the speaker.  It is the Wednesday night group, gathered for prayer, that tells the popularity of Jesus Christ.

Every souls in the world must ultimately choose between an empty tomb and an empty religion.

Our Cause
