Pat Garner's favorite Bible passage:
When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
Psalm 8:3-4 (KJV)

Affirmation from 1 Timothy

1 Timothy 2:5-6; 1:15; 3:16

Leader:
There is one God
and there is one mediator, Christ Jesus,
who came as a ransom for all,
to whom we testify.

People:
This saying is sure
    and worthy of full acceptance:
That Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners,
    and was manifested in the flesh,
    vindicated in the Spirit,
    seen by angels,
    proclaimed among the nations,
    believed in throughout the world,
    taken up in glory.
Great indeed is the mystery of the gospel.
