We like the integrity of this church's leadership, the wonderful sense of family and the warm welcome to new families. It's based in the Word of God and the Scriptures, and we also wanted our children to grow up in this church because of its wonderful children's ministry. And as our sons have grown up, they've wanted the same for their children. (Quote by - Anne Thomas)

The way we're being treated, it feels like we're celebrities. I've never been religious. I used to go to church off and on, but I promised myself if my fiancee and I got through this that I would start going to church from now on. We were saved by the grace of God. (Quote by - Brian Johnson)

We tried to reach all the churches in the county and everyone on the committee and on teams made sure that as many people and churches as possible know about Cancer Sunday. Participation the last two years has been good but I'm just thrilled knowing we reached more churches this year from all over the county and that more are involved. (Quote by - Robbie Atkisson)

I never weary of great churches. It is my favourite kind of mountain scenery. Mankind was never so happily inspired as when it made a cathedral. (Quote by - Robert Louis Stevenson)

We had a few calls saying election precincts had closed early. But it turned out that the callers were in the wrong places. Some people went to the old locations of a church, rather than the new one. We called the polling locations as well as the church pastor and they verified they were still open. (Quote by - Jane Anderson)

Jay Griffin taught a chess class and he decided to form the club. We met at Mother of Sorrows church for several years before moving to the First Presbyterian Church on Laird Road. (Quote by - Joe Lawlor)

A lot of people up there will have lost everything, and be struggling to come back and, you know, this is a faith-based music. When they come in there, they talk about having church. So it's not a church -- but it's a place where you have church. (Quote by - Quint Davis)

The church's family program, in the final analysis, is God's program. In this sense, the church's proposal, while assuming the positive aspects of the United Nations' proposal, goes further, not in the sense that it sacrifices determined values and needs of so-called modernity, but in the sense that it offers a broader and richer vision. (Quote by - Dionigi Tettamanzi)

The black churches didn't lead on civil rights, either. Martin stood out there. Then the black churches came along. I believe it's the same thing with HIV. The Balm in Gilead is leading the call. (Quote by - Pernessa Seele)

The Lord never said, 'Build a big church,' .. God said to me, 'Build big people, not a big church.' I remember him saying that. He was speaking to me about the motives of my heart. I knew he wanted me to do something solid in Hawaii. (Quote by - Wayne Cordeiro)

Church is really the only place you get to wear them. Some people don't dress up for church, but we do. (Quote by - Angela Jackson)

Churches such as Pilgrim Baptist one of Chicago's most historic black churches, which recently burned in an accident have largely lost the vibrant community of middle-class blacks who built them up and now are struggling to attract a younger generation. While we value the architecture, it should not be at the expense of ministry, and oftentimes that's the dilemma that we're faced with. (Quote by - Michael Noble)

Being an African-American woman, I'd been faced with some ugly (racial) things in my life. When I went there, the home was so bright, and it was cheerful. It was amazing. The mother was 100-percent devoted, and the father, too, and the big church family. .. That was the true outreach that people imagine churches to be. (Quote by - Emma Jones)

When we got there, it obviously was in the beginning stages of the fire. It was coming from the middle of the church. Then the fire began to rage. Then it engulfed the whole church. (Quote by - Terri Johnson)

If you can't start talking about Jesus by talking about your church, then you're going to the wrong church. (Quote by - Tim Knopps)

Me and my wife call it 'Church' now at my house. So I say, 'I'm going to church,' and I close the door in my room at 9 o'clock every Sunday morning. (Quote by - Jake Speed)

Our concept is not so much having church on the weekends, but being a church, .. If we had taken that money and built a church, it just would have been a lie. Hurricane Ivan was just a minor inconvenience compared to what's happened (in Waveland). It's Third World in nature. (Quote by - Rick Long)

We have the unique distinction of being the only Orthodox church dedicated to Saint Anna in the United States - and her Shrine since we have her relic. The parish has the responsibility of being prepared to offer hospitality to the thousands of people who will visit every year, and that is only proper that we build a church that will accommodate those visitors. (Quote by - Father Christopher Flesoras)

We understand there are conflicts that sometimes leave people feeling hurt by others in the church, or other situations which have left people feeling isolated. Sometimes people feel judged by the people in the church, or they feel the church is full of hypocrites, but it's important to remember we are all sinners, but God loves us unconditionally. (Quote by - Kelly Sloan)

An instinctive taste teaches men to build their churches in flat countries with spire steeples, which, as they cannot be referred to any other object, point as with silent finger to the sky and stars. (Quote by - Samuel Taylor Coleridge)

Brandon Watson gave all of us the impression he would help us more out of the gate than Church would. We didn't want Church to sit on the bench. He's got too much talent. (Quote by - Jim Bowden)

There were positive things about the church, that is, in the European cultural sense, the architecture, the liturgy, the music, the art, such as it was, the stations of the cross in the church, the tradition, and the atmosphere of awe and mystery in the mass. The atmosphere of miracle, one of mainly mystery, that's what fascinates me. (Quote by - Frank McCourt)

One of our great allies at present is the Church itself. Do not misunderstand me. I do not mean the Church as we see her spread out through all time and space and rooted in eternity, terrible as an army with banners. That, I confess, is a spectacle which makes our boldest tempters uneasy. But fortunately it is quite invisible to these humans. (Quote by - C.S. Lewis)

Part of the church's opposition might have been its pagan connotations. All along, the church has been uncomfortable with what I would call folk religion. But they could do little to stop it. (Quote by - Martha J. Egan)

Leadership in church is one of the biggest challenges that the Church is facing because without strong leadership, the church rarely lives out its redemptive potentials. (Quote by - Bill Hybels)
