About This Quote

[At CMC West Coast 2011, on 1 Samuel 14] If just a few of you would step up and be like Jonathan ... as you step out in faith, you know what's going to happen? There'll be people like Saul who'll say, "God's doing something through that guy, God's doing something through that girl. I want to be a part of that." And if you do that, there'll be people like David. The story of David and Goliath is one of the most famous stories in the Bible. You could easily read it today and know what's going to happen at every point in the story -- David will win, he'll kill Goliath -- but it wouldn't be the same story if a single person did not step out in faith.
