T.D. Jakes had the challenge of following a guy who was shot out of a cannon at Catalyst. Here’s some of what he had to share:
- “We have to change.”
- “Jesus has such a huge vision to go into all the world.”
- after the crowd was unresponsive… “You all sound like you have arthritis on your lips”
- “God is going to do a new thing in your life.”
- “I have it on divine authority that there are some planet-shakers in this room today.”
- “People who play it safe are not leaders.”
- “You have to get out front…and, yes, you will be shot at.”
- “I have an iPad…with a Scrabble game on it.”
- “Run the risk of saying something stupid, so you’ll get the language that reaches the masses.”
- “If everyone on your cell phone is just like you, this is the year to break the rule.”
- “Only the church doesn’t learn the language of the masses.”
- “Here’s the first thing you need to know about black people — black people don’t jump out of cannons.”
- “If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always be where you’ve always been.”
- “Until we’re willing to be uncomfortable, we cannot grow.”
- “If you find yourself in a place where you’re the smartest person in the room, get out of the room.”
- “Every great teacher is a great learner.”
- “When you go, go nervous. Go praying. But for God’s sake, go.”
- “God will not allow sameness to procreate. Fruit is born when differences come together.”
- “I believe that you can fly.”
