“The Christian cannot be satisfied so long as any human activity is either opposed to Christianity or out of all connection with Christianity. Christianity must pervade not merely all nations, but also all of human thought. The Christian cannot therefore be indifferent to any branch of ernest human endeavor.

The church must not only seek to conquer every man for Christ, but also the whole of the man.”

“Thinking is the most overrated human activity.”
