Al Mohler on Facebook
Never allow social networking to replace or rival personal contact and communication. God made us to be social creatures that crave community. We cannot permit ourselves to substitute social networking for the harder work of building and maintaining personal relationships that are face to face.
The Fellowship of the Ring on Fellowship
Frodo: Go back, Sam! I 'm going to Mordor alone.
Sam: Of course you are. And I'm coming with you!
Sam: Of course you are. And I'm coming with you!
The Fellowship of the Ring on Time
Frodo: I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.
Gandalf: So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil.

The Fellowship of the Ring on Judgment
Gandalf: Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not bee too eager to deal out death and judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends.

Philosophy of Education
"Part of our role as Christians involved in education is to help restore the love of truth and the earnest search for it....Indeed, because of our devotion to Christ we should endeavor not merely to know and teach the truth in whatever area it may be found, but to love the truth and inspire others to love it too. After all, people are impelled not so much by what they know as by what they love" (Michael L. Peterson, With All Your Mind, 202).
