Text Quotes
The Lord will bless us with more baptisms if you make sure the ones you have are going to keep their commitments. The Lord will not prepare more people for baptism if we are not converting the ones we have  (Converting People Quotes) St. Peter announced the glad tidings of the Gospel to the people on the day of Pentecost, and converted, by the first Christian sermon, ever preached, three thousand - which formed the primitive Church  (Converting People Quotes) I am not writing to try and convert people to fundamental Christianity. I am just trying to share my experience, strength and hope, that someone who is as messed up and neurotic and scarred and scared can be fully accepted by our dear Lord, no questions asked  (Converting People Quotes) My mother’s family is Christian: her father was a Baptist lay preacher, and her brother, in a leap of Anglican upward mobility, became a vicar in the Church of Wales. But my mother converted to Islam on marrying my father. She was not obliged to; Muslim men are free to marry ahl al-kitab, or people of the Book - among them, Jews and Christians.  (Converting People Quotes) After the Spanish Civil War against Franco, a group of us got together: a group of well-to-do people who were sympathetic to the lost cause of a Republican state. We bought a convent in Toulouse and converted it into a hospital run by the Unitarians. It took care of the Spanish refugees who fled to Toulouse.  (Converting People Quotes) Some women have said, ‘Gee, here I am getting involved with this fat guy, what will people think of me?’ But they were converted and sometimes surprised.  (Converting People Quotes) Haven’t two hundred years of failed missionary work overseas taught anybody anything? You can’t convert people to anything - whether religion, or something as inane as our flicks.  (Converting People Quotes) When I had my television show, ‘Barbara Mandrell and the Mandrell Sisters,’ it was my high hope to convert people to country music. It is wonderful and contagious!  (Converting People Quotes) Mormonism is not historic Christianity. When people say, ‘Well, Mormons and Christians all believe the same things,’ my response is, ‘If that’s true, why are they always on my front doorstep trying to convert me?’  (Converting People Quotes) It’s wrong to try and convert tribal societies. What should the empirical evidence for religion be? It should produce peaceful, strong, secure people who are right with God and right with the world. I don’t see that evidence very often.  (Converting People Quotes) Some religious practitioners make absolutist claims for their beliefs: I’ve no interest in doing this, nor do I have any interest in converting people, which is doubtless a relief to anyone who has feared finding me on their doorstep asking if they’d like to know more about Odin.  (Converting People Quotes) If you’re going to counsel people - and that’s all my ministry is, it’s a counseling ministry more than anything else - people have to believe that they can trust you and that they can listen to you, that you’re going to try to help them and not just politically try to convert them to your views.  (Converting People Quotes) My fear in converting it to 3-D is that people will say, ‘Oh, it’s the 3-D ‘Clash of the Titans.’ No, it’s ‘Clash of the Titans,’ the movie, and then, on top of that, you have the 3-D conversion. The 2-D movie works as well as the 3-D movie. I want to make sure that people like the 2-D version.  (Converting People Quotes) People who have no hold over their process of thinking are likely to be ruined by liberty of thought. If thought is immature, liberty of thought becomes a method of converting men into animals  (Converting People Quotes)
