Faithful Quote by Stephen Altrogge

“If we give up easily on a project that we believe will honor the Lord, we’re not being faithful. We’re being lazy, and we’re actually being selfish. We’re not allowing others to benefit from the creative gifts that God has given us. God expects us to be faithful.” quote by Stephen Altrogge
