It's amazing how a single act of love can transform someone from the inside out. Even in your life, one single act of love could be the tipping point to someone knowing the truth of Christ, so don’t withhold that from anyone you come across.

Jarrid Wilson
Jarrid Wilson war ein US-amerikanischer evangelikaler Pastor und Buchautor, der zuletzt an der Harvest Christian Fellowship in Kalifornien wirkte. Bekannt wurde er als Mitgründer der Initiative „Anthem of Hope“ und durch seinen offenen Einsatz gegen die Stigmatisierung von Depressionen und psychischen Erkrankungen in der Kirche. Seine Texte thematisieren seelischen Zerbruch und Gottes Gnade und führen Bibellesern vor Augen, dass christlicher Glaube und psychische Not einander nicht ausschließen.
