The Blog of Darryl Dash

Toronto, ON Canada

This blog is about how Jesus changes everything. He changes:

  • Our relationship with God
  • Our relationship with others
  • Our vocations - how we live and work in this world
  • Our ministries

This blog exists to explore some of the ways that Jesus changes everything. It provides resources and articles that will help you think about the ways that Jesus can change every part of your life.

The Lord himself invites you to a conference concerning your immediate and endless happiness, and He would not have done this if He did not mean well toward you. Do not refuse the Lord Jesus who knocks at your door; for He knocks with a hand which was nailed to the tree for such as you are. Since His only and sole object is your good, incline your ear and come to Him. Hearken diligently, and let the good word sink into your soul. (C.H. Spurgeon, All of Grace)

The Most Practical Thing

September 14, 2012  /  Darryl Dash

I love this quote from Tim Keller's Center Church:

A pastor should be marked by humility, love, joy, and wisdom that is visible and that attracts people to trust and learn from them. As a pastor, you may not be the best preacher, but if you are filled with God's love, joy, and wisdom, you won't be boring! You may not be the most skillful organizer or charismatic leader, but if your holiness is evident, people will follow you. This means, at the very least, that a dynamic, disciplined, and rich prayer life is not only important in the abstract and personal sense; it may be the most practical thing you can do for your ministry.
