It has been said... truly that the Church exists for those outside of itself. The Church must never be in any sense a little huddle of pious people, shutting their doors against the world, lost in prayer and praise, connoisseurs of preaching and liturgy, busy mutually congratulating themselves on the excellence of their Christian experience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our target donor pool is individuals, families, businesses and organizations in Woodford County. 4-H really touches more people than just ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34130]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our target donor pool is individuals, families, businesses and organizations in Woodford County. 4-H really touches more people than just the current members.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34130</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There was once, in a remote part of the East, a man who was altogether void of knowledge and experience, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46577]]></link><description><![CDATA[There was once, in a remote part of the East, a man who was altogether void of knowledge and experience, yet presumed to call himself a physician.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46577</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As far and Matt and I are concerned ... all I can do is compete against myself.

I need not now attempt to make precise these heresies, as they came to be called. It is necessary only to point out that in various ways all these heresies were simplifications. By means of them, the revelation of God to men was made -- or appeared to be made -- less scandalous. On the other hand, the various clauses of the Creed were not formulated as a new simplification, or as an alternative-ism. They were nothing more than emphatic statements of the Biblical scandal, statements which brought into sharp antagonism the new simplification and the old, Scriptural, many-sided, and vigorous truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6958</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66172]]></link><description><![CDATA[If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66172</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He had it when he got here. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35908]]></link><description><![CDATA[He had it when he got here.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The hard gives more then he that hath nothing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49867]]></link><description><![CDATA[The hard gives more then he that hath nothing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49867</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't think the market can make a lot of headway until we get an idea of the depth and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37128]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't think the market can make a lot of headway until we get an idea of the depth and breadth of the profit recession.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37128</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Having seen and felt the end, you have willed the means to the realizationof the end. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21931]]></link><description><![CDATA[Having seen and felt the end, you have willed the means to the realizationof the end.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21931</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We just wanted to keep the momentum of this season going.
