Great quotes from Tim:

If the enemy can take an apostle down, he can take them all down.

God is more normal than you can imagine, and more supernatural than you can imagine.

Desire is the leading part of the heart. Emotions, mind, and will follow behind.

One of the other legit sources of God’s communication to us is via our heart’s desires.

Christians should be the most desirous people on Earth.
