One of the most painful things for me is the reality that, almost certainly, I'll never be married and have children. But my Lord and Saviour never married, nor did He ever have children. So I can rest in the fact that He has gone through this loneliness and is with me still.

One of the most frustrating things about dialogue between Romanists and Protestants is that the Romanist will continually cite heretics like John MacArthur as authoritative representatives of Protestantism...and we can't even cite the literal "Vicar of Christ" to represent them.

The number one reason liturgical worship is better than spontaneous worship is this: no matter what my feelings are, the worship in the Book of Common Prayer is the same. If my worship is spontaneous, then of necessity it is based upon my own (or the worship leaders') feelings.
