The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concert. Beautiful people do not just happen.
— Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
  • Really excited to go to Passion : Houston Jan 30 - Feb 1! I have had the privilege of attending Passion the past two years and they have both been highlights of my year. Check out their promo video
  • I have admired the way that the Reach Records guys and others are redeeming culture with their music rather than ruin it. You may think Christians have no fun, but we do.

For knowledge is of things we see
And yes we trust it comes from thee,
A beam in darkness: let it grow.
