Quotable Quotes



For Such A Time As This - It is not inevitable that this disease should triumph. The powers of disease and death are great but, to borrow words from Esther, "for such a time as this" God calls us for a new mission and ministry in our churches, theological seminaries, and religious institutions. (Donald Messer, Breaking the Conspiracy of Silence, p. Xiii)



Children of a Loving God - "Each of us is part of God's family...we are one. The world may separate us by countries, cultures, races, borders, and even denominations, but in truth we are all the children of a lving God who cares for everyone of us. (Donald Messer, Breaking the Conspiracy of Silence, p. Xii)
