The journey begins, though, with understanding what it means to be a christian. To say you believe in Jesus apart from conversion in your life completely misses the essence of what it means to follow him. Do not be deceived.

God blesses his people with extravagant grace so they might extend his extravagant glory to all peoples on the earth

Who God is and what Christ did have huge implications for who we are personally and what we desire sexually.

To be a disciple of Jesus is to make disciples of Jesus.

Clearly our greatest need is not more regulations in order to merit salvation.

It is a constant battle to resist the temptation to have more luxuries, to acquire more stuff, and to live more comfortably.

When God tells us to give extravagantly, we can trust Him to do the same in our lives. And this is really the core issue of it all. Do we trust Him? Do we trust Jesus when He tells us to give radically for the sake of the poor? Do we trust Him to provide for us when we begin using the resources He has given us to provide for others? Do we trust Him to know what is best for our lives, our families, and our financial futures?
