Relations between parents and children and siblings and mates. This is not external. We can't separate them.

If our gospel does not free the individual up for a unique life of spiritual adventure in living with God daily, we simply have not entered fully into the good news that Jesus brought.

Why doesn't God just force us to do the things he knows to be right? It is because that would lose precisely that which he has intended in our creation: freely chosen character.

The sinner is not the one who uses a lot of grace... The saint burns grace like a 747 burns fuel on take off.

When Jesus directs us to pray, "Thy kingdom come," he does not mean we should pray for it to come into existence.
