Tommy Barnett quotes:

If you want to be a bridge of hope to the world, you've got to allow yourself to be walked on

Starbucks has kept me in the ministry.

Find a need and fill it, find a hurt and heal it.

Great men are just ordinary men that didn't quit.

If you reach the people nobody wants, God will give you the people everybody wants.

If your church isn't winning souls, I hope you go out of business

It's not just our job to minister to other peoples' needs. We also have to minister to their potential.

I've discovered it is not sufficient simply to try to take time for quietness but that I must, with all diligence, make time. Whatever keeps me from prayer, solitude, and the Bible, however good it appears, is my enemy if I am to be God's devoted friend and follower.

The call of God is what gets you out of bed everyday, not a burden for something.

We take a lot of things for granted in our lives, such as gravity, air, daylight and time. Yet time is one of God's most precious gifts to us. It is the most significant non-renewable resource at our disposal. We have less of it remaining with each passing day. When God gave this gift, He intended for us to use it carefully; intentionally, wisely and productively.
