Six-hundred-page biographies of German theologians aren't known to fly off the shelves.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
One of my favorite things about America is our breathtaking collection of national and state parks, many of which boast wonders the Psalmist would envy.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
When Trump says America first, it doesn't mean cheering for America only. It means if you want to care for your neighbors, you have to make sure that you are yourself, first, healthy.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Miracles seem to attest to the presence of a loving and compassionate God, one who wants to help us, who wants to speak to us and encourage us.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Christians who enjoy and support art and culture, who make it a priority in their lives, and who reach out to those in the arts instead of reflexively pushing them away, can help bring the culture toward a renewed appreciation of goodness, truth, and beauty. And that is good for everyone.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Perhaps the best thing about biographies is that they enable us to slip the strictures of time and provide a bracing corrective to our tendency to see everything in the dark glass of our own era, with all its blind spots, motes, beams, and distortions.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Work allows us to take care of God's creation and bring glory to Him as His stewards.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
We've always been the most generous nation in the world when it comes to caring for those outside of our borders.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Every single cell in each person's body tells us whether that person is a male or a female. There is no human being in history whose cells have some mixture of the two, nor anyone who has ever been able to change that cellular reality.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Here's one thing the media and all of us should learn: Trump is not wrong nearly as much as everybody says he's wrong.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Trump errs on the side of bluster sometimes for effect, but I don't think that the people who voted for him, most of them, would ever be for not caring for immigrants or refugees. People in the church know it's our obligation.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
For proof that our culture has gone to the dogs, look no further than the bizarrely parental ways many Americans talk about our furry friends.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
For many of us, this is very painful, pulling the lever for someone many think odious. But please consider this: A vote for Donald Trump is not necessarily a vote for Donald Trump himself. It is a vote for those who will be affected by the results of this election. Not to vote is to vote. God will not hold us guiltless.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Thankfully, forgiveness, and the healing it brings in its wake, has nothing to do with 'deserve.'
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
The freedoms we have enjoyed in America - and spread around the world - are incredibly fragile freedoms.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
If you accept my thesis that the universe and this earth are the most outrageous miracles by an infinite margin, then you will understand that simply for us to exist requires a miracle.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Let me tell you something you already know: reading is critically important - especially for Christian believers. God, after all, reveals Himself to us in the written words of Scripture. Think about it: when we read the Word, we place ourselves in the very presence of God.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Freedom requires virtue. Virtue requires faith. And faith, in turn, requires freedom. You can't have coerced state-sanctioned religion. It has to be utterly free.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
I came to the conclusion over time that Trump is not the person I feared he was in the beginning when I was against him.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
The only leader America should ever have is someone who understands that the people are the government.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Thinking about the sins of others give us a feeling of moral superiority. But thinking about our own sins is a humbling experience, which is generally much less fun.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Quite simply, our isolation from nature has become isolation from God's Word. Cocooned in our manmade world of climate-controlled homes, cars, subways, and high-rises, we're finding it easier to live as practical atheists.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Miracles are supposed to point us to Him, but we can get to God without miracles. It is God himself we should long for rather than for the miracles that point to him. To get caught up in wanting miracles is a bit like thinking the destination of a road trip is the highway you're supposed to take.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Christians recognize that our planet was uniquely designed and fine-tuned to support life - and that's putting it mildly. Our place in the universe is nothing less than a miracle.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Largely, the people driving abolition did it because of what they believed from the Bible.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Doesn't assuming that an intelligence created these perfect conditions require far less faith than believing that a life-sustaining Earth just happened to beat the inconceivable odds to come into being?
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
As Christians, we sin with anger because we lack faith in God's ability to provide for or protect us.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Whether one believes in miracles or the miraculous has mostly to do with the presuppositions one brings to the subject.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
There's already a world of evidence that life on Earth is unique and intelligently crafted.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
To try to preemptively shut down debate with name-calling is profoundly un-American and will harm this country.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
America is the only nation in the world based on an idea - freedom and self-government - so if we don't understand that idea and what sacrifices were made to win that freedom and keep it for over two centuries, how can we possibly continue to keep it?
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Part of my life's thesis is that we live in a culture that has bought into the patently silly idea that there is a divide between the secular world and the faith world.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
It's a fact that if Hillary Clinton is elected, the country's chance to have a Supreme Court that values the Constitution - and the genuine liberty and self-government for which millions have died - is gone. Not for four years, or eight, but forever.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Wilberforce, because of his faith, stood up for African slaves. Bonhoeffer, because of his faith, stood up for Jews. That's Christianity to me.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
The odds against life in the universe are simply astonishing. Yet here we are, not only existing, but talking about existing. What can account for it? Can every one of those many parameters have been perfect by accident? At what point is it fair to admit that science suggests that we cannot be the result of random forces?
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
The logical conclusion of relativism is absurdity. Non-sense. A worldview that undermines its own premises.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
The Bible is filled with stories about angels, but many of us have had our view of angels confused by popular misconceptions about them, the principal of which is that angels do not actually exist anymore than fairies do, or wood nymphs or water sprites. But they do exist, and the Bible attests to their existence innumerable times.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Each era has the fatal hubris to believe that it has once and for all climbed to the top of the mountain and can see everything as it is, from the highest and most objective vantage point possible.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
You and I must demonstrate love to our gay neighbors, of course, remembering that we are ultimately engaged in spiritual warfare. But we should boldly stand up when our rights as citizens and the demands of our conscience are threatened.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
I have no doubt, if people are really seeking the big questions, it will lead them to the Lord.
Quote by -Eric Metaxas
Everyone needs to stop and breathe and look at how redefining marriage will have a hugely chilling effect on religious liberty in America.
