  • Faith is an act of rational choice, which determines us to act as if certain things were true, and in the confident expectation that they will prove to be true.

  • Faith always contains an element of risk, of venture and we are impelled to make the venture by the affinity and attraction which we feel in ourselves.

  • Bereavement is the sharpest challenge to our trust in God if faith can overcome this, there is no mountain which it cannot remove.

  • All faith consists essentially in the recognition of a world of spiritual values behind, yet not apart from, the world of natural phenomena.

  • I have no fear that the candle lighted in Palestine years ago will ever be put out.
