Quotes by Sarah Jakes Roberts
Sarah Jakes Roberts (b. 1988) — Pastorin, Bestseller-Autorin und Rednerin · Nicht-denominationales / charismatisches Evangelikales Christentum · USA
Sarah Jakes Roberts (* 1988) ist eine US-amerikanische Pastorin, Bestsellerautorin und Leiterin der Bewegung „Woman Evolve“, die im charismatisch-evangelikalen Umfeld US-amerikanischer Großkirchen wirkt. Sie steht für Themen wie emotionale Heilung, das Überwinden von Scham und Neuanfänge nach persönlichen Krisen, sieht sich jedoch auch theologischer Kritik an einem stark motivationalen, auf Selbsthilfe ausgerichteten Predigtstil ausgesetzt. Für Bibelleser bieten ihre Impulse lebensnahe Anknüpfungspunkte bei Versagensängsten und Alltagskrisen, werfen aber zugleich die Frage nach der Grenze zwischen biblischer Auslegung und psychologischer Ermutigung auf.

Instant gratification often results in long-term disappointment. The many broken promises I have made to myself have created wounds I am still discovering. Growth occurs when we confront our personal experiences and how they've changed us.
Sarah Jakes Roberts
Until we forgive ourselves, we will always see ourselves through the shattered pieces of the dreams we can no longer have. Nothing can be seen clearly through broken pieces: no future, no hope, no faith, no love is capable of being seen properly until we admit that we are driving on a flat tire. We have to stop believing that just because we are damaged we are irreparably broken.
Sarah Jakes Roberts
We are all imperfect and no one is without flaws. And fortunately, ministry is not about leading people to ourselves, it's about leading them back to the One who saved us. How tragic…that we often allow the image of perfection to cloud the need to show where His strength is made perfect in us.

When you're a teenager - How do you determine what being a Christian looks like, if you're not willing to be as transparent as the realty TV world we live in? If we are to make it easy for others to find God, we must be more diligent about sharing our stories, openly and honestly.
