Quote by Jim Cymbala
“I have heard Pastor Cymbala say many times that we will not one day stand before Christ to announce the size of our ministry, but to give an account of the substance of our ministry. Christ’s evaluation, both now and in eternity, is based upon the fruit evidenced in the lives of the people to whom we minister.”
