It’s better to die with a conviction than to live with a compromise.  ~Vance Havner, “Must I Live?”

Too many sermons are bedtime stories to lull the saints to sleep instead of morning reveilles to wake them up! ~Vance Havner, “Time for Judgment” (1 Peter 4:17-18)

Birthdays tell you how long you’ve been on the road, but not how long you’ve traveled.  ~Vance Havner, Old Time Religion
