“The work of preaching is the highest and greatest and most glorious calling to which anyone can ever be called.” Quote by Martyn
“There is no better test as to whether a man is really preaching the New Testament gospel of salvation than the fact that some people might misunderstand it and misinterpret it to mean that it really amounts to this–that because you are saved by grace alone it does not matter at all what you do, that you can go on sinning as much as you like because it will abound all the more to the glory of grace. That is a very good test of gospel preaching. If my preaching and presentation of the gospel of salvation does not expose it to that misunderstanding, then it is not the gospel.” PeopleIfsMenMeanDoeMatterFactsMightGraceGoes OnAmountGloryTestsSalvationVery GoodSavedPreachingTestamentMisunderstandingNew TestamentPresentationSinningSaved By Grace Author:Martyn

“I don't particularly like the idea that there's an arc to the story and that therefore in this scene you have to convey this bit of information or emotion. I like more the feeling that, of course, there is a shape to the story, but that each scene should feel right, should be true at that moment, and that gradually you accumulate these moments of truth until you get enough of them together that it becomes a story that's interesting.” FeelsShouldIdeasEnoughMomentsStoriesFeelingsTogetherCoursesBitsInterestingEmotionInformationSceneShapesBeing TrueThat MomentArcsFeels RightMoment Of Truth Author:Michael Winterbottom

“Beautiful and minimalist, the traditional Japanese art of ikebana - arranging bouquets of cut flowers and leaves using very few elements - ideally corresponded to a form of expression I could transpose in a perfume.

“Inevitably, people tell me that poor folks are lazy or unintelligent, that they are somehow deserving of their poverty. However, if you begin to look at the sociological literature on poverty, a more complex picture emerges. Poverty and unemployment are part and parcel of our economic order. Without them, capitalism would cease to function effectively, and in order to continue to function, the system itself must produce poverty and an army of underemployed or unemployed people.” PeopleIfsLooksOrderLiteraturePoorPovertyEconomicProduceCapitalismFunctionArmyComplexesFolksCeaseLazyUnemploymentDeservingUnemployedParcelSociologicalUnintelligentEconomic OrderUnderemployed Author:Bob Torres
