Randy spoke to a group of InterVarsity students at Harvard College. Drawing from Scripture, he talks about money and giving, and shares six keys from his book The Treasure Principle.

I’ve been collecting quotations about Jesus for years. Here are some on His deity, beginning with the inspired words of John 1:1: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”

This parable serves as a warning to all of us. Jesus applies the rich fool’s experience to that of others: “So is the one who lays up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God” (Luke 12:21).

Randy was a guest on the Building Excellence Podcast with Bailey Miles in 2025. He shared his story of coming to Christ, how he transitioned into ministry, and his experience of becoming a writer. Randy and Bailey discussed mentorship, stewardship, and how adversity affects faith, as well as the role sports played in Randy’s life and the characteristics of a good coach.

Scripture gives us this command: “Whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31). “All” includes exercise—so I ride my bike to God’s glory, and worship Him while joyfully playing tennis and snorkeling. My thanks to David Mathis, author of A Little Theology of Exercise: Enjoying Christ in Body and Soul, for giving us five helpful reminders in this new year about how to glorify God through our exercise.

The Heaven that now exists, called the present Heaven, is where God dwells with His people and angels and the living creatures. It is where His throne is located, and hence, it is the location from which He governs the universe. The present Heaven is a place free from the curse, without sin, death, and suffering.

How many of us Christians hope God will guard us from calamity and misery, while every day we make small, seemingly inconsequential immoral choices that inch us toward bigger immoralities?

In this clip from a Q&A with students in the Torrey Honors College at Biola University in 2012, Randy references Matthew 22 and addresses the topic of marriage in Heaven. He says there will be one marriage: Christ married to His Church.

In this clip from a Q&A with students in the Torrey Honors College at Biola University in 2012, Randy explains that you can be wrong without sinning. We will continue to learn in Heaven—testing, improving, and learning like scientists using the scientific method, which involves being wrong at times, but does not require sin to be present.

In this clip from a Q&A with students in the Torrey Honors College at Biola University in 2012, Randy explains that the New Earth will be recognizable as Earth, but without the flaws of the current earth. He presents our resurrection bodies as a model to think about the New Earth.

In this clip from a Q&A with students in the Torrey Honors College at Biola University in 2012, Randy talks about how our earthly lives will not just restart in Heaven. This brings value to our present life, and reminds us that this life is not our one chance to fulfill our deepest dreams.

In this clip from a Q&A with students in the Torrey Honors College at Biola University in 2012, Randy explains that in Heaven, we will not be deficient in the way we usually think of it. We are finite beings with a lack of complete knowledge, and we will learn forever in Heaven.

In this clip from a Q&A with students in the Torrey Honors College at Biola University in 2012, Randy says that although we will have the ability to make choices in Heaven, we will be fully righteous, and use our free will to love and worship our Creator. We will be with God, the source of all goodness, so there will be no temptation to sin.

In this clip from a talk with students in the Torrey Honors College at Biola University in 2012, Randy explains how we can speculate while reading the Bible without leading ourselves into incorrect biblical interpretaion. We can differentiate which parts of our thinking are speculation, and which parts are present in the text. He also talks about literal versus figurative interpretation of Scripture.
