QUOTE: "There was something when Oral leaned into that television and said, ‘Something good is going to happen to you today.' There was something that leaped inside of us and said, ‘It's true.' ... He was not a perfect man; he was an extraordinary man-a giant who served a perfect God. What an interesting and historical irony that He took a young man with a speech impediment and caused him to be named Oral, healed him of tuberculosis and made him a world-changer, a healer of the sick and an inspirational leader. That is the God of Oral Roberts, and that is our God as well. ... Jesus himself said, 'Give and it shall be given unto you.' Oral didn't make up those words, but he made them manageable and bite-sized." —Oral Roberts University President Mark Rutland, eulogizing the school's founder and pioneering television evangelist at Roberts' memorial service on Monday [charismamag.com, 12/21/09]
