Revival begins in a place of longing, begins within you, in a heart that is hungry and thirsty, eager to see God.
(Simon Potter)
It is the joy that will sustain us in the mission field and it is the joy that will send us as well. If we are going to bring liberation to people, we have to at least be freed, if we are going to take transformation, we have to be transformed.
(Adriana Potter)
