    Twitter post from Oct 18, 2014
  • Failure is just part of the process, and it's not just okay; it's better than okay. God doesn't want failure to shut us down. God didn't make it a three-strikes-and-you're-out sort of thing. It's more about how God helps us dust ourselves off so we can swing for the fences again. And all of this without keeping a meticulous record of our screw-ups.

    Bob Goff, Donald Miller (2012). “Love Does: Discover a Secretly Incredible Life in an Ordinary World”, p.29, Thomas Nelson Inc

    Bob Goff, Donald Miller (2012). “Love Does: Discover a Secretly Incredible Life in an Ordinary World”, p.215, Thomas Nelson Inc
  • No book is a chapter, no chapter tells the whole story, no mistake defines who we are. Hope makes our lives page turners.

    FaceBook post by Bob Goff from Jul 15, 2014
  • It's easy to confuse a lot of activity with a purposeful life. Do what lasts; let the rest fall away.

    Twitter post from Feb 15, 2015
  • Courage doesn't mean we're not afraid anymore, it just means our actions aren't controlled by our doubts.

    Bob Goff, Donald Miller (2012). “Love Does: Discover a Secretly Incredible Life in an Ordinary World”, p.52, Thomas Nelson Inc

    FaceBook post by Bob Goff from Apr 25, 2014
  • I don't think anyone aims to be typical, really. Most people even vow to themselves some time in high school or college not to be typical. But still, they just kind of loop back to it somehow. Like the circular rails of a train at an amusement park, the scripts we know offer a brand of security, of predictability, of safety for us. But the problem is, they only take us where we've already been. They loop us back to places where everyone can easily go, not necessarily where we were made to go. Living a different kind of life takes some guts and grit and a new way of seeing things.

    Bob Goff (2012). “Love Does: Discover a Secretly Incredible Life in an Ordinary World”, p.207, Thomas Nelson Inc
  • I used to think I could shape the circumstances around me, but now I know Jesus uses circumstances to shape me.

    Jesus  
    Bob Goff, Donald Miller (2012). “Love Does: Discover a Secretly Incredible Life in an Ordinary World”, p.31, Thomas Nelson Inc
  • I used to be afraid of failing at something that really mattered to me, but now I'm more afraid of succeeding at things that don't matter.

    Bob Goff (2012). “Love Does: Discover a Secretly Incredible Life in an Ordinary World”, p.25, Thomas Nelson Inc
  • The way we treat people we disagree with most is a report card on what we've learned about love.

    FaceBook post by Bob Goff from Jun 28, 2015
  • Words people say not only have a shelf life but have the ability to shape life.

    Bob Goff (2012). “Love Does: Discover a Secretly Incredible Life in an Ordinary World”, p.88, Thomas Nelson Inc
  • I want to go barefoot because it’s holy ground; I want to be running because time is short and none of us has as much runway as we think we do; and I want it to be a fight because that’s where we can make a difference. That’s what love does.

    Bob Goff (2012). “Love Does: Discover a Secretly Incredible Life in an Ordinary World”, p.195, Thomas Nelson Inc
  • God keeps telling us to be not afraid, to go big

  • If we pick recognition over influence we'll be known for all the wrong stuff.

    FaceBook post by Bob Goff from Feb 28, 2014
  • Jesus never told His friends to play it safe.

    Jesus  
    FaceBook post by Bob Goff from Jun 21, 2014
  • I learned that faith isn’t about knowing all of the right stuff or obeying a list of rules. It’s something more, something more costly because it involves being present and making a sacrifice.

    Bob Goff, Donald Miller (2012). “Love Does: Discover a Secretly Incredible Life in an Ordinary World”, p.8, Thomas Nelson Inc
  • I think of the church as this bride of Christ, who is incredibly capable of doing amazing things. And so where we see injustice, we come, not with fists clenched but with palms up.

  • One thing I do is (and I realize this might sound nuts), every month or so, I try to take like an Etch-a-sketch [so to speak], and I clear my faith. I go to zero, clear the deck. And I start adding things back to my faith, one at a time. What would be the first thing I'd add back? Jesus. It sounds a little bit like a Sunday school answer, but that's what I do. Then what's the next thing? And I'd say, well, loving people. And then the next.

    Jesus
