“If you want your ministry to have â€˜itâ€™, more important than anything else weâ€™ve discussed, you must have â€˜itâ€™. When it has filtered through your heart - the rare combination of passion, integrity, focus, faith, expectation, drive, hunger, and Godâ€™s anointing - God tends to infuse your ministry with â€˜itâ€™. He blesses your work. People are changed. Leaders grow. Resources flow. The ministry seems to take on a life of its own.”

One of the terrible things about this Administration is that nobody wants to hear bad news.”
