I have much respect for the prophets who are asking God for his mercy on all of us, and who use the terms “we and us,” rather than “they and them.”

How should we read the prophecies of Amos today? What’s the point? Is there a message for you and me in the rantings of old Amos the sheepherder?

We still need the voice of the prophet in our churches and our religion.

It’s not what you know, it’s what you do with what you know.

The human tendency is toward complexity.

Like Timothy, I have much to hold on to and carefully guard.

The truth is, when we’ve got to stand on our own, and stand up for what we believe, we’ve got to have an “endoskeleton” kind of faith.

His life was defined by what he hated, not by what he loved. His work was defined by what he destroyed, not by what he created.

Friends, the message for you and me today is to trust God more and worry less.

There’s always a part—a very significant part—of the situation that we can’t see until God opens our eyes to the spiritual realm and its realities.
