“As you change the way you think about God and who he is, your value system begins to shift and you adopt the ‘value system of heaven.’ . . . What does God value? God values character over comfort, faith over fear, mercy over judgment, justice over injustice, people over possessions, truth over falsehood, humility over pride, hope over despair, love over apathy. In other words, God values the things that will last. He has an eternal perspective. He invites us to view life from that same perspective, to believe that he is at work in history in ways that often remain mysterious to us, that he is redeeming what has been stolen and healing what has been broken.” ~ Kay Warren
