The gospel does not prompt you to mere reflection; the gospel requires a response. In the process of hearing Jesus, you are compelled to take an honest look at your life, your family, and your church and not just ask, 'What is he saying?' but also ask, 'What shall I do?'

When we consider the promises of Christ, risking everything we are and everything we have for His sake is no longer a matter of sacrifice. It's just common sense.

Anyone wanting to proclaim the glory of Christ to the ends of the earth must consider not only how to declare the gospel verbally but also how to demonstrate the gospel visibly in a world where so many are urgently hungry. If I am going to address urgent spriitual need by sharing the gospel of Christ or building up the body of Christ around the world, then I cannot overlook dire physical need in the process.

God loves me so that I might make him— his ways, his salvation, his glory, and his greatness—known among all nations.

Superficial religion consists of merely believing certain truths and doing certain things....such superficial religion is rampant in the world today.

Salvation has absolutely nothing to do with human merit and absolutely everything to do with divine mercy.

The resources of heaven are ready and waiting for the people of God who desire to make much of him in this world
